I see some interesting things: flying heater wires! and a Haar Tele(from my country). Title: Re: 183 Post by: Emiel on January 24, 2011, 10:00:28 AM So this is the first clip of the 'Tag' Ceriatone I guess... sounds really nice and thick!
Title: Re: 183 Post by: mcinku on January 24, 2011, 12:04:32 PM This sounds awesome...
:o ...man, I must resist. :( Title: Re: 183 Post by: erwin_ve on January 24, 2011, 02:04:32 PM ...man, I must resist. Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated ;D:( Title: Re: 183 Post by: mcinku on January 24, 2011, 02:25:21 PM ...man, I must resist. Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated ;D:( The force within me is still strong... I hope it lasts ;) Title: Re: 183 Post by: johanare on January 24, 2011, 03:08:25 PM Interesting to finally hear a good recording of Niks take on the TKT amp.
Can you compare it to any other Dumble amp? How's the clean tone or is it all about the lead channel? Sounds more "grainy". We want to hear some more! Hi Erwin :) Title: Re: 183 Post by: leodiditright on January 24, 2011, 03:58:41 PM Great stuff! definitely need to hear the clean channel now. :)
Title: Re: 183 Post by: Pickmaster on January 24, 2011, 04:25:10 PM Sounds great Sami, lovely playing too my man.
Cheers Title: Re: 183 Post by: MaxBoogie on January 24, 2011, 04:49:38 PM So is this a 100W version with EL-34 power tubes?
Any other mods?? Title: Re: 183 Post by: spm on January 24, 2011, 09:30:46 PM Thanks !
Yeah, cleans are great too. I try to make some more clips soon... Title: Re: 183 Post by: leodiditright on January 24, 2011, 09:59:34 PM Thanks ! Yeah, cleans are great too. I try to make some more clips soon... Thanks! Please use also your tele for the clean clip. :) Title: Re: 183 Post by: Nairbr on January 24, 2011, 11:14:26 PM Nice sounding amp and playing ;D
Title: Re: 183 Post by: spm on February 02, 2011, 07:11:47 AM One quick clean channel clip added...
Title: Re: 183 Post by: mcinku on February 02, 2011, 07:26:39 AM Sami for God's sakes.... stop making these clips... you are starting GAS pandemic
;) Title: Re: 183 Post by: electra blue on February 02, 2011, 03:39:54 PM Love it! Great tone and excellent playing
Title: Re: 183 Post by: Olric on February 02, 2011, 08:41:54 PM Terrific...
Title: Re: 183 Post by: Nairbr on February 03, 2011, 01:07:42 AM I am really becoming a #183 fan, nice tone
Title: Re: 183 Post by: MaxBoogie on February 03, 2011, 04:59:21 PM Really nice job showing what the tone controls can do on the clean channel! Wonderful tone all around. But I did notice that the volume level seemed to drop off quite a lot when you flipped the Jazz switch??? That seemed too much of a drop to me.
So I've seen that it's 100W, but what kind of power tubes? Title: Re: 183 Post by: MaxBoogie on February 03, 2011, 06:20:22 PM Nevermind... I found a spot in one of the videos that shows JJ EL-34L tubes.
I WAS going to go with an HRM version, but this sounds so great that I may have to rethink that! Did you order with any "extra" mods from Nik?? Title: Re: 183 Post by: boldaslove6789 on February 03, 2011, 06:49:39 PM SPM,
The amp sounds great, the clean sounds killer! Can you post a video w/ the C-lator for us? Title: Re: 183 Post by: spm on February 03, 2011, 08:15:10 PM Thanks.
Yep, tubes are JJ EL34L... no mods, its stock "183". I try to make some more clips soon.. /sami Title: Re: 183 Post by: spm on March 13, 2011, 11:08:13 AM One more 183 clip...

I just got my HRM 50 built and doing the initial power up routine. I can only hope mine will sound as good. Very nice indeed! Title: Re: 183 Post by: T Wilcox on March 13, 2011, 07:00:19 PM I wonder if my amp could sound like that, I know my fingers dont :)
Great job love your clips That's crazy good sounding! Sounds like you got that part! I just got my HRM 50 built and doing the initial power up routine. I can only hope mine will sound as good. Very nice indeed! Your gonna love it. Title: Re: 183 Post by: SoundPerf on March 13, 2011, 07:43:41 PM Sounds like you got that part! Yep, I ordered it from Antique Elec Supply on Tuesday night using standard USPS and it showed up on Thursday in my mailbox. I was blown away. When I first saw it I thought the one from Ceriatone finally came, but no luck on that one YET.Your gonna love it. So anyone (in the US I suppose) I highly recommend Antique Elec Supply. Title: Re: 183 Post by: bluesfendermanblues on March 13, 2011, 08:11:24 PM That's crazy good sounding! I just got my HRM 50 built and doing the initial power up routine. I can only hope mine will sound as good. Very nice indeed! It will eventually, but not 'right out the package' remember it takes 80-100 hours before it has matured.

Very nice indeed! It will eventually, but not 'right out the package' remember it takes 80-100 hours before it has matured. Since I got my WGS ET-65 ( 1x12 in homeade combo cab now )and upon startup (Yesterday)it was alot harsher sounding than the other speakers. I have a looper on my B%ss GT10 and just set a little rhythm track and then let play for most of day while I was out ( approx 8hrs )and then fiddled with it even longer. Today I have been playin with it for a few hrs as well and it already sounds a hella of a lot better. And I have found that the OD trim is the most sensitive of all knobs on this amp, Just barely(<9:00 ) past clean sounding is almost what gets the best sound IMO so far. After that it just starts to sizzle too much ( maybe a differnt Pot would be more suitable for OD trim). Or hopefully that is some of the burn in hopefully |
