Quote from: T Wilcox on March 21, 2011, 05:54:10 PM Hello all back to the infamous PI pot this thread leaves me wondering what I am missing. Mcinku for those of us that dont have access to an O-scope, what difference in tone are you noticing once you have it set properly? I am just wondering if this will be a necessary adjustment for my amp since right now it sounds great. Although I want to get the most out of the amp too. Would you be able to tell the differennce between an OTS that has PI setup and 1 that has not by ear? Thanks Todd Like Erwin stated the goal is to get best harmonics and bloom... I try to achieve it with setting my PI to be perfectly balanced like shown on the video and than I get my guitar and play some chords... the sweet spot is usually very very close to that.

Quote from: sduck on March 21, 2011, 05:39:12 PM This is a great thread - now I'm starting to feel like I know how to do this adjustment. Only problem - my scope doesn't seem to have a math function - it's an older Heath 4226. Can I use the X-Y mode? Or is there some other way to set the thing? Actually it might have some kind of math mode, just that I don't have a manual and can't find anything obvious on the panel. Do you have a measurement function? Both waveforms should have the same pp voltage... when Vpp is the same on both plates, sum of both is zero.

I made mine switchable 4-8-16 just in case...

My choice would be a dummy load or your ears will bleed ... 1kHz freq is not a lot of fun to listen to

This might be helpfull for all DIY guys which are lucky enough to own a scope... Feed the amp with 1kHz (power amp input - loop) Connect your probes on PI plates and set the scope to measure AC Set the math function to sum the two channels Adjust trimmer until you get the straight line (or close to)

Sounds awesome.... can you perhaps switch between 183 Quinn and Bluesmaster preamp on the fly. I would love to hear the difference side by side in the same clip.

Man this is getting worse and worse... devastating really I really hope this is going to get better soon...

130	Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: HRM or HRM-BM??	on: March 09, 2011, 09:06:47 PM
For an old rocker who's addicted to lots of gain... I would say nonHRM amp would be a better choice. Just throwing that in to make you life even worse. ....that's just my humble opinion of course. It's very hard to propose an amp to a person like that... bottom line is both amps would do the job just fine. You need to ask yourself what do you like... Fendery tone perhaps? An amp which likes pedals better?...than BM is your amp. If you want more of that signature Dumble smooth tone, than perhaps HRM would be a better choice. Sorry to say this but you're on your own.

Man now I feel sorry for that wurlitzer...

Nice to hear you found your tone... but man I'm trying to stay away from those NOS tubes. Once you start buying those it can become really expensive.

A friend of mine is a carpenter and he did it for me... as you can see he put his mark on the cab at the back... nice touch isn't it.

That's a nice photo, I like it.

135	Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Simple HRM Bluesmaster mod for that icepicky overdrive	on: March 01, 2011, 01:19:51 PM
BM is definitely not an ice picky amp... I use mine with D-lator and my presence is on three o'clock to compensate the loop a bit. Are you sure everything is OK with your amp?
