You can't just rave here how cool it is without pictures.

We demand photos.
 

T-Rex Room-Mate is a cool pedel... but it's not cheap  :

I'm not an expert but as far as I know 5881 tubes are rated for plate voltage up to 400V and Overtones plate voltage is 450-470V. That's to much for these tubes.

 

- No manual.
- Red light is OD, Green is PAB
- Boost is not adjustable... but there are some mods possible to change things here
- Yes boost is on both CH
- well mine works like this...
for boost when is on pedal (switch) you can only use pedal to switch on/off, if you switch to manual the boost is on all the time
for the OD when the switch is on pedal you can use switch for on/off but without the footswitch when in pedal, the OD is ON and when manual the clean CH is ON

something like that

 

...and where is your "Ratio" at?

Regarding Fendrish clean... yesterday I wasn't sure but now I am...
I can finally say my lust for Twin has ended right here. Yesterday, my friend brought his SF Twin for the test and man, this amp can do that sound very well, way better than my DRRI ever could...   
I'm all thrilled about that 

Yes, let us know what will happen with that trimmer.

 

Just for the record... I already have a speaker for this amp. I ordered it even before I heard the amp. It seems to be the right choice for most players.
Celestion G12-65

...although I'm playing through my old Greenback now and man, I think I like that speaker for this amp as well... but 25W is not big enough I guess.
 

 
Well I only had an hour with mine. Today I have a major date with these amps and I have a friend coming too.

...anyway what I can say for sure is, these amps worth every penny for the clean channel only. Very Fendrish sounding, just the way I like it. I was surprised to see how I was able to set the tone I like very quickly. I think thats a sign of a good amp. I'm not really an OD guy, so I had no issues with setting a slight OD tone I liked. I did notice slight loss of bass and increase of the hi-end while using OD, but that didn't spoil anything. It wasn't harsh and I was playing my strat with gold lace sensors. I was using my Greenback speaker and I was not playing very loudly (home volume). If this turns out to be an issue for me, I already know what to tweak... I did my homework
...but first I must build my cab and see how it works with my new G12-65 speaker.

I also noticed that this amp sounds better if the master it opened (let say around 7-8) and clean ch. volume is down. I think it sounds fuller this way. I also like to set the ratio OD control very low, so when you hit the OD button you notice just a slight boost in volume. It feels like an extension of the clean ch. with a slight grit and more sustain.

If you want to know how I feel about this amp... let just say 


 

No head cab for me ... I'm going with the combo.

...at least that's the plan for now
 

If anything, 5E3 is a blues amp all the way. Can't go wrong with it.
...and as far as the Ceriatone quality, they are right there with the best of them.

 

I don't want to pour salt on your wound but you have to see this 



.... no nothing wrong with my camera or your vision, what you see is two Overtones.
 

One is mine and the other belongs to my friend. Very nice to have two just in case we decide to mod these amps. It's nice to have one as a reference.

 

Mine is still at the customs but I am getting it today.
 

I think you found your tree.
 

 

Beautiful tone !!

When I get mine (within a day or two  ), I'm sure not going to start messing with it right away. This is my first D style amp, so I have to learn how it responds to my playing and what it can do actually... and only then (maybe) I'll have a clue what I want to change... only then I'll start thinking about the tweaks.
...meaning, I'll give it a month and then we'll see
