  • Fender Tremolux Tweed

    Hello!

    My tremolux is already built!
    itīs base is 5E9 - A schematics (schematics heaven)
    but OT is mercury magnetics 5G9 model
    it is cathode biased, 2x 6V6JJ tubes
    and the rectifier is 5U4GB (also used in 5G9 model)
    speaker is Jensen Alnico P12R

    There are few problems:
    the sound is muffled
    there is not much headroom
    and it breaks up too early (yet the drive is nice fuzzy)
    it means that there is almost no clean sound
    (the guitar volume knob doesnīt work well)

    So, I thing that the main problem is in the values of the voltages in
    the amp because there are any in the schematics
    and I have not an opportunity to calibrate the original

    maybe the problem is somewhere elsewhere
    I donīt know exactly

    every reasonable information can help me!!!
    many thanks

    Martin
