Thanks a lot Talbany! :D

I will try this eventually. I don't have the ability to do this myself but next time it's time for service I will.

Any other hidden secrets to get THAT tone :D

Good looking build. :D

Who built your Catulator?

I'm surprised who ever built your amp that the trimmer pots are gooped up.


Those relay boards usually come with three relay positions. :wink:

Thanks Talbany!
You mean like a add-on unit for the amp (internally).
PM what you can do...


The relay kit was supplied by Brown Note and I think it's just for two positions. Came with a 2 button Marshall footswitch.

Just so everyone knows.. The mod how I drew it up is not footswitchable..(Although I suppose you could make it such) ..Don't really know why you would want it that way.. It's designed with a 3 position switch on the front to give you bright on all the time bright off all the time or bright on only on the clean channel...Bright on only on the clean channel works automatically when the OD relay is engaged enguages the bright relay which takes the bright cap out..The kit would include the relay board and 3 way switch on the front and mounting hardware.. of coarse some wire and a few bright caps all mounted internally ...There you go!!

Tony,

When you do this are you running your FS leds in series or parallel with the relay?

Sounds like the set up I would prefer. I don't need it footswitchable.
