  • Help in finding or designing Schematic

    Hey I'm new here and I have been looking all over the place for an amplifier that will give me the cleanest signal before distorting or breaking up... I am looking to see if anyone knows of any schematics for a tube amplifier that will not break up at low volume levels... I havent been able to find a good sounding amp anywhere... If anyone knows of any schematics please tell me I am looking for an amp that i will be able to gig with and still be able to provide loud volume levels and a clean signal... thanks

    Where are you and what amps have you tried that didn't work? Were they in good condition? Almost any amp will stay clean at low volume levels. I gig at local clubs and casinos with a 20W Fender Deluxe Reverb.

      And frankly if you want super clean and no break up, what is wrong with a good solid state amp? Plenty of steel players run solid state, and they are all about clean.

      In tube amps, when I think loud and clean, the first thing to mind is an old AMpeg. For that matter some old SUnn amps are loud and clean as well. I just sold a guy my AMpeg V9. That is an SVT with a guitar preamp section. 300 watts of clean guitar. Loud enough for you?

      Look at bass amps in general, they tend to be louder and cleaner. Hey, it's an option.

      I always thought an old Mesa Mark 2 or Mark 3 had a good loud clean, though you can certainly dirt them up with the twist of a knob.

      And what's wrong with a Fender Twin Reverb? Plenty of volume to be had before getting dirty.
      Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.
