Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
Looks great. I've always wondered, the Ceriatone layouts always put a high voltage cap across the leads at the rectifier. What's the electrical function of that?

Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
It may be an illusion of forced perspective, but the left-most backup diode on the tube rectifier socket appears to be touching the body of the cap can. Killer job though, very clean.

Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
Thanks for the feedback! Yes that's an illusion, the diode is about a centimeter below the can.

Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
I figured, but thought I would mention it anyway. Better safe than ---POW!----
Looks really good, man. I have iron for a 36W build (scratches chin....)

Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
Craig.. you're doing a mighty fine build there!!! Ain't it a joy when you think of the money you'd have to spend on letting someone build it like THAT for you??

Thanks so much Bieworm. This is for a friend, he paid for all the parts and I'm contributing the labor for free.

Thanks Riffmonster -- hopefully she'll be like a rock & roll girlfriend: looking clean and sounding dirty!

Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
Any special purpose for that? A 36 Watt won't lack headroom...
Is it for a tight sound?

Re: 36W Turretboard Layout
Yes. And of course it can be switched off. With NFB off and running in half power it will be similar to a typical 18W circuit. The tone stack is shifted down a bit from a Marshall TMB, with the mid notch the same dB depth but the frequency moved down to 400Hz. The channels don't mix until they hit the PI, which is also a bit different than Marshall.
