TOS Build Diary

[tubenit]

I am thinking about pulling it out and reworking the power supply in a more normal way

I originally built my TOS and the Carolina Overdrive Special with VVR.  Sold the COS. 

And when I rebuilt the TOS into the TOS 2CF,  I removed the VVR and installed a LarMar PPIMV.  At the volumes I normally play at, I decided I liked the PPIMV better.  Having said that, playing with a band, the VVR was very useful to me & it is easier to record OD tones with the VVR, IMO.

I tried "all the 12A_7's" in the FX loop.  I thought 12AU7 sounded the most transparent without adding significant gain. 12AY7 was nice also.

with respect, Tubenit
