Totally off the subject...i just clicked on your website...and i love it!
Great look to the site...awesome songs...nice tones....superb phrasing on your playing....

just a treat...thanks for sharing!

but i didn't catch your name anywhere on the site...Huh??

I'm looking forward to hearing some recording with your overtone.

Okay, that's enough ass-kissing.

Chris....have you posted any sound clips?  I'd love to hear the D'Lite.

Marin...you're a badass!!!   Would you mind sharing that backing track?..I want to try to post some more clips this week.  I'm swapping out my OD drive tube.

Also, I've been curious how you are recording your video and audio?  Are you miking the amp and running it into a video/audio editing program?   All I've ever been able to do is record with my kodak digital camera in video mode...but It doesn't have any way to use anything other than the crappy built in mic for audio.  I have a little pro tools rig, but really no way to sync up video from a video camera.

Thanks for all your help...and your awesome clips!!!

I'm going to be trying a TAD select (JJ) tube in the overdrive section, and mess around with the trimmer a bit...after that, i might use a different snubber cap to tame a little of the highs on the OD....
anyone done any of this???

rock on,

jeff

AWESOME MARIN!!!!!   you're smokin' my man!!!
Best tones yet!
I'm jealous....I haven't even had time to turn mine on since my gig last Friday.
I'm gigging with it tomorrow night...I'll try to get some clips from that.

Keep it up, Marin....great, great playing!

PLEEEEEEZE let me know how that works out!   Have you played with the OD trimmer yet?
23  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Just ordered my Overtone. on: February 27, 2008, 02:16:56 PM
I know that when Nik shipped mine out, it showed up two days later....pretty impressive coming from Malaysia!!!!

There should be a lot of happy people around here soon!

Welcome!   I'm loving mine....but I'm still trying to dial in the overdrive tone a little more...I think we're about 90-95% there...But I'm pretty picky!

I will say that the amp likes humbuckers a little more for the overdrive tones, but the cleans are gorgeous with just about any guitar.  I have not used the effects loop yet, but will eventually need to put a delay in there, and possibly some reverb...I'll cross that bridge when I get there...right now, the tones are so nice, I haven't missed effects!!!!

Let us know when you guys get your amps!

If anyone here needs help getting a new Gibby...I'm a dealer and will give you an unbelievable deal!!!  (I'm just not allowed to talk about that...)
25  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: It's Heeeere!!! on: February 25, 2008, 06:34:18 PM
I still haven't opened the chassis to see where the OD trimmer is...where is yours set?

thanks,
Jeff
26  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Overtone Soundclips on: February 25, 2008, 06:32:29 PM
MAN...you are getting the tones i want....is everything set at 12:00?Huh?
Why haven't you posted any clips of your Fuch's on youtube?  I'd love to see how it sounds compared to the overtone!!!!
27  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: Overtone Soundclips on: February 25, 2008, 05:02:46 AM
very nice, sir!   Welcome to the forum (and to the addiction).
What other amps do you own, and how does the overtone compare so far?

Thanks for sharing and Keep the clips coming!
28  Ceriatone / Overtone / Re: It's Heeeere!!! on: February 25, 2008, 04:20:45 AM
Hey guys...you're probably not going to believe this....but I went back and watched the clip that I posted again, and realized that particular clip was my Peavey classic 30 head. I was comparing the 2 side by side and recorded several clips....my favorite ones were the overtone run clean with the reverend drivetrain pedal, and straight into the Peavey Head on the drive channel.   I'm going to work some more this week and post more clips.  I'm having computer problems, and my computer keeps freezing when I try to record into pro tools, so my only way to get the clips up is to play the backing tracks through my powered monitors and set my cheap kodak digi camera in between the monitors and my amp to try to get a decent mix.  The mic on the camera is crappy, but you can still hear how the amp sounds (and how rusty my playing is)

Once again, I'm glad to be working through this stuff with you guys in this forum.  Thanks for everything!

-Jeff

Yes, I've tried it with several different guitars....the first guitar I tried it with was a vintage style strat with vintage reissue pickups...the overdrive sounded horrible and i was very disappointed.  I kept an open mind and kept tweaking, and tried it with several other guitars.  The cleans sound great with all the guitars, but the overdrive really sounds best with humbuckers (in my opinion).  I am liking the amp more and more every day, but I think there could probably be a pretty simple and minor mod to the overdrive circuit that would give it that extra "something" that's missing.  I really think it has to do with taming the highs and accentuating  certain mid frequencies. 

Hell, what do I know?  I've been chasing the "perfect" tone for over 25 years, and have owned over 50 really nice amps and have really high expectations from anything based on a dumble design.

Is Nik reading these threads, and could he chime in?Huh?

I really appreciate all the input from everyone here, and enjoy being a part of this!

I TOTALLY agree with you...SPM has absolutely nailed the tone I want from the amp...
I haven't been able to get his settings... I have tried rolling all the treble off...as i usually don't play with very much anyway, and have played with the mids when the OD is engaged, but it seems as if the tone controls do almost nothing when using the OD...

so, I'm thinking it has to do with getting the ratio and overdrive set right and the internal trimmer set right.

SPM?  are you around?Huh??

HELP!!!!
