Hey... there's a "hear it" section in the forums link. There are a lot of soundclips there from various posts.chaliapin wrote: ↑Mon 02/06/23 4:47 amThanks bieworm,
With hindsight I should have built am 18 watt and tweaked for more headroom but here I am...
Seems to me all the post PI MVs are doing is cutting the signal, and therefore there overdrive, to the power tubes. And that's where the interesting stuff happens...
Having said that I'd love to hear from someone who has built the 36w lite, break up on mine is a lot later than the 18 I built and definitely significantly less distortion available overall.
Just played the amp again this morning. It's a glassy rattle in the treble, only with the volume up near half so with slight breakup and more noticeable on certain notes, it almost sounds like a rattly tube or something. Now I think of it I'll tighten all the nuts and bolts...

Here's a link to my 36W tremolo TMB... overdrive for days!
