Joeamazoo pentode front end
« on: August 31, 2022, 08:19:46 pm »
Kalamazoo model 2 is one of my faves.


So here’s my riff on it with effects.


Tubes:
6sj7
12dw7
12ax7
6BQ5 SE
SS or 5ar4


I played with choke input, and likely will go that route, but here is what’s on the breadboard. Currently using 5k primary and 8ohm secondary on reverb transformer.
Any thoughts welcome, thanks!
