Title: Tweed OD PLUS
Post by: tubenit on November 26, 2011, 06:51:01 am

Well ........ with the cooler weather showing up, I know some of us will be ramping up the amp builds and tweaks!

So here is another idea to consider. DaGeezer has been contributing some thoughts and direction on this.

CHECK for ERRORS!   Just a draft idea and I have not built it.

The SCH editable versions are here:
http://www.el34world.com/Forum/index.php?topic=12712.0 (http://www.el34world.com/Forum/index.php?topic=12712.0)

This amp would have:

Clean
Clean & OD
Clean & PLUS
Clean & OD & PLUS

And ....... it would have multiple tone stack switching options.  I think this could be a pretty cool amp.

There is also a 5879 PLUS version and a HRM PLUS version in the editable files.

I should add that I have built all these ideas (except the tone stack switching) into one amp or another at one point. However, I have never combined them all into one design. Never had both an OD & PLUS drive for example.

With respect, Tubenit

PLUS is like more (than just one overdrive).  I could have called it OD2 instead of PLUS, but decided on "PLUS".
