Title: hrm bluesmaster - od trim , how does it works ?
Post by: pruns on February 05, 2011, 08:14:38 AM
 Hello everyone , i'm new on the forum !! I recently purchassed a 100w bluesmaster kit from ceriatone .
I put in it mercury tranies as it wasen't not much expensive ,well my question is : how does the od trim works , cause it seems to be just an other volume level for the the od ???.. as i have build the amp myself, could have done some mistakes !!
An other thing is on the clean chanel i don't have so much treeble i have to put it on 10 with the pull bright on to have a decent sound ( i'm playing with a strat ) maybe it comes from the power tubes as they are old ones from a friend ( 2 of them are metal 6l6 ..!) i'm waiting for svetlana winged c ...
one last thing is that the od chanel is two times more powerfull than the the clean ..is this normal ? maybe i have to adjust it with the od trim !! :P
thank you very much for your help and advices !! math.

For your questions: http://www.ceriatone.com/Manuals/ceriatone%20bm%20hrm%2050w%20100w%20manual.pdf (http://www.ceriatone.com/Manuals/ceriatone%20bm%20hrm%2050w%20100w%20manual.pdf)
Metal 6L6 are solid state and sound like crap. Better wait with tuning till there are some decent tubes in it.
Cheers ,

Erwin

thank you erwin !
FOR the 6l6  i 'm wainting , it won't be long !
I just worried a bit about the huge difference between clean and od chanel . Od is really very loud as i expected from a 100w but clean seems to have some loss of the signal it's a bit weak , maybe it comes from the tube ?
thanks again !!!!!!!!!
