Congrats my friend, one hell of an amp, I'm sure, especially with tose nice transformers on the pick. I can't wait to hear sound samples. Please!!!!!!!
Great post John! Nova is a lovely pedal and you don't need a kleinulator. You can use second amp (with the ground lift) with Nova to go stereo and this sounds fantastic. People tend to complicate their lives with to much outboard gear.
6V6s where mentioned several times! You have to read old posts. They won’t work unless you modify the power section. Better to try ToneBone tube adapter and use EL84s.
Last week I did some jazz with the Overtone Special; comping with clean channel, 1st solo clean channel, 2nd solo with OD channel. No PAB used in this recording. Enjoy!
Probably boost switch, which is different than other D style amps. It does not change the tone much, just pushes it bit more. Or probably loads of pedalwork on his board. But who knows! Everything depends on the day mood really.
Yes he did! His words were: “Nice tone, I really like this, is it 50 watt? I thought so, bit small to me. I only use clean channel and push it so I need more head room. That’s why I use 100 watts, otherwise it is nice amp!!!”
My final thoughts about the Thunderbox. It is NOT a LOUD cab!!!. Ordinary 1x12 cabinet cuts better in loud band situation. Thunderbox is great for recording (via inner neodymium mic capsules) and small club gigs where you don’t want to kill listeners with the directional speaker cabinets. It’s great for big stages if goes through PA and if it stands NEAR player where one can hear it clearly. Because of that you need high efficiency speakers not less than 100db, like EVm-12L, Eminence Wizard, Jensen NEO Tornado or Celestion Century.
here is a video of the cab with Jensen Tornado speaker and OTS
I really love your playing, but your tone sounds wery fuzzy on all the overdrive settings, that you show on the clip.
It sounds like a fuzz pedal feed with high output humbuckers and not like a tube amp, sorry.
Still love your playin and your riffs. The clip you showed where you play with your band has a much better tone IMHO.
I’ve recorded same tune with OTS and Koch pedaltone and here they are for comparison. I think there is no much difference between them. I like OTS more but my son prefers Koch.
