A Mix of #0060 OD100WR/ #183

I'm sure Steve is aware of that as he has built a few of these not to mention several Trainwrecks as well.

He gets some of the most awesome NOS parts I have seen.

Good deal. I recently ran into someone that got bit by that.

This amp has the best overdrive to date.
B+ 444 volts
V-1, pin 1, 198 volts
V-1, pin 6, 158 volts
V-2, pin 1, 210 volts
V-2, pin 6, 208 volts
PI 100k 300 volts
PI 110k 301 volts

Thanks to all, Steve.

So you scratched the Verb circuit? Why not add a D-lator? LOL, I hate seeing that V3 preamp tube slot covered .

[67plexi]

Greg, I scraped the single tube reverb or D-lator due to the ratio pots no chassis space.
Now that I have a Pre-amp Power-amp combination with clean and overdrive ratio works great.
It’s time to get a better understanding of HAD’s three tube reverb and start fresh with a 26” chassis.
The only upgrade would be a Marshall JMP T2562 lay down power transformer.
The old 85 watt blackface Twin PT is ok but I like a real loud amp.
Head box time now.

Steve.

Tolex Time,

A few mistakes but close enough for now.

Steve.

[Structo]

Looks real nice Steve.
Love that burl wood.

So does the Drake OT deliver the goods?

[67plexi]

Tom, Thank you. It's the best sounding amp to date.

[67plexi]

The, Back.

[67plexi]

Ok this is a great sounding amp out of the gate; the clean and overdrive ratio’s
Let you dial in any tone you could imagine. The only china parts are the relays.
V-1 Amperex 12ax7, V-2 GE 7025, V-3 PI GE 7025.
Power tubes Made in USA 6L6GC NOS quad branded GT.
The bad part is I missed a step on the head cab, Used a 1/4 “round over bit missed the 3/8” round over bit. I can’t stand looking at it.
So a combo cab may be the answerer. I’m out of tolex . Would like a grab and go amp stage space
is an issue. One more good point is the ½ power switch works like a charm.
I have a fresh EVM12L and EVM12S will see what his amp likes best.

Regards, Steve.

Working on a combo, Next step the dreaded Vox diamond grill cloth.

Thank you all, Rock-on.

Both amps are a thing of beauty.

Anyone ever built a sealed speaker section to keep vibration down in a ODS combo before?
