    Crate V33 head powering issue (gut shots included)

    The main issue is when the tech looked at it, he said that it will not power up! I can reflow solder joints and check for anything that looks bad. Upon first inspection, everything looks fine. I will look up those videos and see if they help me out. I uploaded a different schematic with...

    Crate V33 head powering issue (gut shots included)

    This is a "fun" side thing for anyone who might have some insight or is interested in helping. As usual I will call upon the great and powerful @vigilante398 since he is our resident tube/amp/all things high voltage guy! My nephew has a Crate V33 head. Its not the higher end made in USA ones...

    Behringer Ultra Octaver UO-100

    That is smart. I suppose I'll have to learn how to cast. I was mostly wondering about modifying the circuit

    Behringer Ultra Octaver UO-100

    I was gifted a Behringer UO-100 as a late Christmas gift. It’s fine on its own, but it sure would be fun to mod and possibly rehouse. What would you do?

    I bought a HiFi amp PCB and I want to make it a guitar amp

    I have been busy, but I am still looking into this build. One of these might be the best option https://edcorusa.com/products/gxse10-3-5k-10w-3-5k-ohms-single-ended-guitar-tube-output-transformer?_pos=3&_fid=d2f51d3ea&_ss=c...

    Thank you! I’ll look around for a different one

    I bought a HiFi amp PCB and I want to make it a guitar amp

    I think I may have found the transformers I want: Hammond 290XXA power transformer Hammond 1750B Output Transformer I’m not sure about the choke. I feel like I’m missing the specs for it?

    I bought a HiFi amp PCB and I want to make it a guitar amp

    Thanks for the tip Fig! I haven't bought anything for it yet. I only have the PCB. I wanted to get a plan together before I bought anything. I should assume that buying transformers designed for guitar amplifiers would help? Someone on a Facebook group I am in mentioned the negative...

    I bought a HiFi amp PCB and I want to make it a guitar amp

    I was browsing eBay (after a few beers) and decided to buy an EF86 EL34 SE amp board. I am sure that I could use a preamp into it and it would sound good, but I think it might be more fun to build it as a guitar amp. I am still learning about reading schematics, so I am hoping to get my...

    Friedman Pedals - a circuit comparison

    That is totally fair. I hadn’t considered that! Also, the schematic is from Amp Garage

    Friedman Pedals - a circuit comparison

    I know this thread is old, but is anyone familiar with the Friedman Naked amp? I believe it is basically a Naylor Superdrive into a Marshall power amp section. I would love to have that tone in a pedal. I've looked at the schematic and I'm not sure if any PPCB current offerings could be...

    9v to 24v?

    That could be fun. I’ve actually never made anything on vero before

    9v to 24v?

    Does anyone know of any charge pump boards that step up 9v to 24 v other than the GGG Charge RTS boards? I am working on the Vandall From Hell project from PCB Guitar Mania. It says it can run on 18v or 24v. I like the GGG board because I can make an output for 18v or 24v and test both.

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    This question may have been covered, but I'm too lazy to look through all of the pages :ROFLMAO: I understand needing a boost in front to raise the impedance of the input. But others have mentioned that the TPA power amps are very clean and simply using a preamp straight in would not sound...

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    I went looking around and I found a couple boosters that I could wire up with the TPA3118s: MadBean LPB-1 Delyk Super 4

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    So, is it possible to up the gain on the board? Also, my HX Stomp does Instrument or Line Output, so no worries there. I just wanted to make it more universally ready in case I didn’t want to use my Stomp

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    Sure, I could buy a board from you! I went back and read more on this thread about it needing a buffer in front, so I ordered 2 JFET buffer boards from pedalpcb. My plan is to use these with my HX Stomp either into a guitar/bass cabinet or into a passive PA cab. Honestly, I may not even need...
