i have a problem i just finished my bluesmaster 50 the clean channel is very nice but i can not engage the overdrive channel relay has been tested thanks for your help Title: Re: overtone bluesmaster Post by: mcinku on March 25, 2009, 06:55:16 AM Man you better fix that up an post some clips asap.
People are waiting for those. ;D ;D So relay is working but still no sound. I'm not a tech but if I would be in your shoes... Are the voltages on V2 fine? Triple check the wiring... maybe you have a cold solder in there. If all that checks out... maybe there's something wrong with the elements on the board (V2 part). Measure them... If all that is fine... take it to your local amp tech. At least that's something I would do. ;) Title: Re: overtone bluesmaster Post by: bluerabbitjames on March 25, 2009, 07:18:08 AM Hi thanks for the answer
plate voltage on V2 is 187V Icould not find any cold solder i hear some sound coming out on overdrive channel when i turn completely on the main volume/level and drive but not loud at all perharps you have other points to check thank you regards Title: Re: overtone bluesmaster Post by: mcinku on March 25, 2009, 07:52:15 AM You did try to change the tube, right?
Your plate voltage is a bit low... but maybe that's right for BM amp, I don't know On OTS V2 voltages should be around these numbers... pin1 200 pin3 1.7 pin6 201 pin8 1.7 Hey, why don't you ask Nik, he will most certainly have some ideas for you. ...and let us know what happens... so we can all learn from your experience.
