I played my latest head (new layout version) again tonight and this one seems to break up a bit earlier than my last amp. When you hit 4 or so it is turning over and the more you go the more you get. The normal channel has more volume and more raunch. The trem channel is smoother but still gets pretty heavy. This thing would be great if you were only playing straight rock. I think I am going to try all or part of the Jason PI mods to see what happens.
Also, I swapped in a Weber copper cap. I could not hear the difference over a real tube. I am going to compare the voltages just for grins.
FWIW, The only shielded wire I used was on the normal inputs. It is just as quiet as my other amps.
