| Looking for a single triode tremolo circuit for a cathode biased princeton reverb
The title says it all... :-) I'm preparing a new build. Based on the princeton reverb, but cathode biased. Cathode bias and the existing tremolo in the princeton reverb won't work together, so i'm looking for a single triode tremolo circuit for this build. Maybe you can point me in a direction, because i'm all out of ideas myself... Thx! |

GA17RVT trem? You may want to add an intensity pot

I have been reading up on this cambridge circuit and the vox pacemaker is very similar. But the tremolo circuit is a little different. Depth is connected to a capacitor first in the cambridge, but to a resistor first in the pacemaker. The osilator cap arrangement is connected to ground in different ways... Which of both would you prefer? (I found the pacemaker schematic @ schematicheaven) thx! | |

| Successful mod - cathode biased with vibrato
Hey folks thanks for the tips. I was modifying a 70's PR to be cathode biased and successfully incorporated a modified version of the pacemaker vibrato. I got the best results by using a 1 meg pot for the intensity, and removed the 680K resistor. I only use a .1 cap before the plate and it seemed to work the best. Thanks! Max |
