Very nice job LC!!

How did you set up the out? Plate driven?

Best Regards

Yes, it's just like what Jerry Garcia did with his Twin Reverb in his setup.
I do notice that when patched directly into a Fender power amp 9exactly as if it were a single combo, there seems to be more drive than I would expect. Seems odd due to the exact same circuits just in two pieces.

Thanks!

Is your HT close to what is expected @ twins?

Amazing work!!!

Yes, the HT is exactly the same as the Twin.
I used a Dumbleator (Tube effects loop) as an attenuator and the sound was amazing.

Ran it through a complete Jerry setup. Replaced the Big Twin Reverb on it's side with this.
Sounded great and lost the weight... Jerry would have been proud.

What's a Jerry setup?

Every time I read "Turlet", I can't help but think of the place where a Redneck goes to relieve himself...

LooseChange · « **Reply #17 on:** June 01, 2012, 09:00:49 pm »

Ha! Thanks for the additional kind words.

Just an update for TRP 2.0.
Added a reverb dwell and back plate for power inlet.
