Good work jzucker on the layout.

One question. What about the 10k trimmer for the PI. #124 and the original Overtone had 5k. Should this be in RED also? And the 100k Level pot (from 250k)?

Yes, I'll have to double check mine. I guess it depends on which version you have. Mine already had the 100k level so I didn't see a change. Mine still has a 10k trimmer. I don't know about that one. I'll ask ayan.

I updated the first post to include the mouser BOM for the tweaks. Can the moderator make this a sticky? How do I contact the moderator?

That guitar sure does remind me of a Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion both in sound and shape. I have three, and they are the best guitar for the money that I've ever owned. Of course the Gibson has 4 knobs and the switch is on top on the original (where I like it).

Blows away the HR Fusion though. I've had several of those.

Back to the ots. I'm having trouble finding the thread with your mod schematics. Give me a clue? Also, when I built my ots, the FET section cut out until I lowered the value of a resistor thus raising the voltage feeding the transistor. Have you heard of this happening to anyone else?

John

Haven't heard of that. The layout is at http://www.sheetsofsound.net/images/OvertoneModded.pdf

by the way, my BOM had the incorrect part for the 120pf caps. Here's the right part:

Here's a clip of mine with the mods.

Done with the changes for now. Big kudos to Gil Ayan and Scott Lerner for the circuit mods. They did the engineering, I did the soldering.

This clip features an Edwards '56 LP w/ P90s, clean, OD with Mid Boost and OD with PAB

Mahalo(Thanks) Jack...great job!!!  You mentioned not all of the mods are highlighted?  Well...guess I have to find my reading glasses:-)

I don't think I said that. They are all in red. Not all of them are circled is what I meant.
57  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Tweaked Layout on: May 02, 2008, 04:51:07 PM
What does snipping the cap on the master volume do for the tone?

keeps high treble frequencies from skipping the master volume. The idea of those types of bypass caps is to let the master volume effect frequencies below a certain point. The cap across them allows frequencies above a certain cutoff to jump through the cap, bypassing the master. In this case, the cap is so small, it's debatable whether it was doing much.

fantastic andy. The movie was very creative.
59  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Tweaked Layout on: May 01, 2008, 10:46:50 PM
Nice work!  Grin Grin Grin Just did the tweaks in a few minutes

You sure you did them all? Not all of them were circled. It should take you 40-60 minutes to do them all.
60  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Tweaked Layout on: May 01, 2008, 08:20:31 PM
not sure what the problem is. I re-uploaded it and it seems to be ok now.
