Yeah, I did a kinda sorta version of it. Using a one knob BluezMeister into a TOS OD and power amp.

You'll maybe need to compare the BluezMeister tone stack with the one knob version I did. What I did was measure the values with the TBM pots and use some fixed resistors instead.

I am very happy with the tone of it & feel like it gives me an improved clean tone.  Having said that, I think the OD lost a little something in the vowel tone so it's a trade off.

With respect, Tubenit

Re: Tweedy Bluesmeister non-HRM - RELAY questions
« Reply #102 on: April 01, 2011, 06:07:15 pm »
Hello all -

Starting to collect part for the BM - got my boards from Hoffman today.

I have never implemented any relays in any of my amps. Seems like this one wants some is that right? How are they wired up?? Should I just get the 6V type??

I am a real nubes with them -- is there good info out there? Seems like the BM schematics show the switches but not the relays. Any trick to having both?? thx again for making this available to all of us!!

I drew this up for a build I'm working on.

It has a panel switch with an LED and an LED foot switch.

I think it's right, but I'd wait to see till one of the guys here says it's correct.

This is the link to Dougs schem. that I based it on.

This is the link to Dougs  limit resistor/LED current cal.
