This circuit is definitely a sleeper around here since there aren't a lot of build reports on it. Or I just don't know how to use the search function on here :ROFLMAO: This is the Disarray Distortion (Suhr Riot). If you want a super high gain, gnarly Marshall tone then look no further. This...

Anybody try building a standalone reverb tank for a build? My amps don't have built in reverb.

Honestly, im a little shocked. I thought there’d be more DIY ones from you guys. I guess the gold standard is the spring tame in many of our amps, huh? Silver standard being a nice factory pedal.

I wanna get a sense of what people like for reverb out there. As a bedroom/basement player it one of my "always on" effects, though I do tweak the knobs depending on what I'm playing. I would like to explore more DIY options out there for some winter projects for myself. My reverb is Belton...

I really like these honest reviews. Not every circuit we build works for our needs, unfortunately. Sometimes its just cool to get some iron time.

This is the power section. You mention you've got 8.75V coming out of D1. That's good. R8 and R9 should be identical on your board. The way the schematic reads you should have approximately 4.5V (a little less in reality) going into pin 5 of IC2. Double check your component values and solder...

BassDude you say? Got a link?

Chugs and thrash

How does the Obsidius fare on guitar?

Is it safe to say the Kewpie is a Muff for people who don't like Muffs? Asking for a friend ;)

Don’t use anything under 1 ohm 😂

Cleaned her up late sunday and took about 15 today, but she's back to rockin some Medadeth licks in between meetings. The fix was stupid simple. I just needed a push in the right direction from you guys. Thanks again!

Awesome first builds!!

Nope. I see it too

You may have a few issues at play, but it's most likely cross talk between the power section and audio section. From what I've heard with PCB design is to keep the traces short and both sections mentioned previously far apart. You also have a lot of empty space in your PCB, so perhaps a redesign...

Tubes and more was pretty quick (and hopefully USPS) with my order. I should be getting the parts today. Took a few minutes yesterday and popped out the channel switch. I was afraid it would be the equivalent of trying to pull out a DPDT switch from a pedal (really tough, but not impossible)...

Yea. I don't have any. I figure it's cheaper just to replace the switch.

Took only a few minutes to take out the chassis and disconnect from the speaker. I took pictures to make sure I wire it back up properly. No soldering needed! (Actually, kind of a bummer). I will, however, since I need to buy a switch, I'll pick up another push button switch to solder in there...

Thanks, guys. First step will be to crack open the amp to see what im working with. Hopefully I’ll have time this weekend.

Should I be worried about high voltages? Like I said I’ve never done amp work before
