Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: OK, that Killed it!

100w for geetar is easy with a pair of 35w sweep tubes in AB1. Go with a full wave supply to the plates and screens get fed from the center tap. -75 to -100 vg1. Hell, pushing the grids positive through an interstage you could prob hit 200w peaks! It depends on whom the amp is built for. Guitar players are looking for a certain sound and to achieve it it seems required to stick pretty close to that ole bassmann circuit, a bouncy squishy compressing supply, a tone generator with just the right recovery time. Building a guitar amp that a player will like has proved more challenging than building a hifi amp with little to no sonic signature. My2
