Fast and slow vibrato switch.
« on: January 12, 2018, 04:32:39 pm »
I am in the process of building Sluckeys variation on Hoffman"s Re-Vibe and after my last order from Doug I have about everything I need except for the fast slow switch. But I have come to the conclusion that fast, slow is what it does not what it is. I need to know exactly what it is and where ( home depot hopefully ) I can buy it. Thanks

The switch I used is a Carling short bat SPST toggle switch just like the one Hoffman sells. It's identical to my power switch. I'm sure you can find a switch at HD, although it may not be pretty.   :icon_biggrin:
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

You’ll love Steve’s ReVibe. I built a few years back, It was my second amp build and I love it. I want to rebuild(Rehouse)mine just because I want to protect my tubes a little better. I pretty much built it like Steves. He makes great designs for amps, I was the first to built his Vox AC-15, it is a killer
