Is it possible to fit a JTM45/50 in a smaller chassis?  I reckon the standard size is too big to sit on my cabs, I'm also thinking about putting a 45 into a combo, again it seems like it's going to be impracticably large for this.

Any suggestions/ideas?

Hi all,  I am just wondering what would e needed to convert the Ceriatone 45 to 50 specs.  I guess EL34's,  SS rectifier but what about the PT's?

Also, how about getting a 50 and converting it back to 45 specs.  Is it as easy as 45 to 50?

My experience of the G12-65 is that it is a lovely unit, but it's too soft & smooth.  I reckon a V30 or G12H would be a good match. 

The V30 & G12H are both a lot louder than the 65 so you may want to try mismatched resistance drivers to try and even the levels out.  e.g. a 16 ohm G12H with an 8 ohm 65.

I need to try this myself, and have the drivers here I just need to get a little motivation 

Thanks for the info.   

I have just been listening to more clips, a lot seem to be showing the amps smooth & compressed qualities.  Quite a lot seem to have Celestion G12-65 speakers too.  It also seems like a lot of clips have the tone control rolled back on the guitar.  All in all smooth, and kinda jazzy.

Whilst these clips are really nice, I also need a less compressed more open tone.  Will the overtone also do this (maybe with less smooth speakers)? 

I really need to make convincing Free & AC/DC type tones as well, I'm happy to get them with a different cab & a pedal.  But will it work for this?

I want an amp with the features & flexibility of the OTS, but I don't really think the voice is right for me.  Any suggestions?

To expand a little, I really want one amp that does it all, with pedals if needed.  I know I am somewhat demanding 

I want BF cleans, Tweed Deluxe cleans & OD, Marshall Crunch & more.  I cannot justify lots of amps, so that is out.  I just cannot decide what to get. 

The OTS, seems like a good compromise, but the voice seems to be compressed or honky in the mids and this doesn't seem like anything I want. 

Even so I am tempted to order an OTS, and use it as a framework for modifying.  Also, speakers and cabs will make a difference so maybe there is something here that will help.

As you can see I am a bit confused, some guidance would be appreciated
