Re: Thoughts on a 5E3 Hybrid
The tonestack from a 5E3 has been built plenty of times with 18 watters, usually around the Lite 2b circuit...
No file attached though, so I'm not sure what you're looking at specifically.

Re: Thoughts on a 5E3 Hybrid
You can build a Fullerwell and just wire V2 as a LTP instead of cathodyne. But why?

Weird, we're able to attach PDFs. Try placing it inline (or not if you already were). Also check the file size.
That seemed obvious to me.

Sorry, my OCD compelled me to mention that cap value! Interestingly, it is shown as 680p on the schematic too, so may just be TubeTown's mod. Sorry for the topic derail.

Re: Thoughts on a 5E3 Hybrid

i found this schematic with half 5e3 input into a LTP 6V6 power amp but not sure if this is what you mean.

No luck.. It try's to load but then I get the yellow triangle error saying 'invalid filename'.. obviously this is on my end.JMPGuitars wrote: ↑Mon 11/18/19 8:03 pmWeird, we're able to attach PDFs. Try placing it inline (or not if you already were). Also check the file size.
That seemed obvious to me.![]()
This is my scenario and my basic question:
I have a 5E3 Deluxe chassis, cab, speaker, and transformer set.
I want to match up a 4 input V1 pre-amp from the 5E3 to a LTP of a 'Marshall type' PI. I would like to retain the separate volume controls of the 2 channels with the single tone knob (Keeping the stock look of the chassis.)
My idea was to build a 'sleeper'...
Something that 'looks' like a tweed deluxe but with a bunch more snarl.
I've done the Robinette mods, the Caldwell mods, and a bunch more mods but haven't been able to get that snort out of it yet.
Modifying the chassis is a no go as I have not yet been able to find one that the nickel wont peel off if I drill a hole in it.
I super appreciate all your help guys.. maybe there is a reason I haven't found what I'm looking for.
Cheers
