What I am finding with the Overtone is with the OD trimmer set to anything past 9 oclock the amp gets a little too bright with the PAB engaged and since the tonestack is lifted there is no way to dial it out.  It makes for great Marshall bite but I'm persistant to getting Larry and Robben Dumble tones.  Time for tweaking.

A quote from ChrisL...

You'll never know until you open up the amp and tweak that trimmer.

this may be a silly question, but are there 12ax7 tubes that break up smoother than others?
I'm just not getting a musical break up....I'll try to record the amp's distortion so you guys can hear what I'm talking about...
I don't have any extra tubes laying around...can you recommend one that I should try in that position?

Tough question... you have Tung-Sol in there, right? That is suppose to be quite good tube.

Maybe this will help...

i really want to get just the overtone to sound like that...if it were a bad preamp tube, wouldn't the clean sound funny, too? 

Not exactly... OD tube would affect only the overdrive sound

Damn, I would never guessed that's an OD pedal. What is it?
It sounds very Dumblish to me.  Huh?

If you don't want to mod the amp it self, like Marin said, tubes, speaker and pickups are the things you can tweak.

Jeffrey nothing wrong with your tone as far as I can tell.

Come on guys, relax...I waited 12 weeks for mine! Grin

Man how the hell can I relax with you posting those clips.
It's like smelling a coffee but can't have it... OK that was probably not the right comparison but on the other hand, I really like my coffee.

This is strange... I don't even have the amp yet but I'm passing advices how to make it sound better... maybe I should just Lips Sealed
What I've heard from Sami and Marin, that amp doesn't need any mods but still...

... for the OD you could increase 270pf snubber caps to 330pf
Smaller snubber caps will give the OD sound a little more presence and bigger caps will mellow out the sound a bit.

Why don't you ask Nik about this, he should have a few ideas as well I think.

As I see that effect loop thing,... there are two ways of doing it.

If you take a close look at the effect loop schematic

...you'll see that using a patch cable will bypass that resistor and capacitor. So try it out and if you like it, you could remove that C&R and keep it like that.

As for RF patch in the loop... I read somewhere he used a long low grade cable which translates into High capacitance cable... and that would smooth out the highs a bit.

...but maybe it's just a myth, I don't know

so much for the amp not liking single coils theory.

I'm glad I will not need to mod it. Why would I, if it sounds like that.
