Alright, so I got back from travel a while ago, but let this fall by the wayside as things have been busy. Sorry. Attached is a picture of the inside of the amp from when I built it. Thinking about this here at work it came to me that I shielded the input connection to that tone pot, so when…[Read more]

Unfortunately I’m on travel for a couple weeks and won’t be able to troubleshoot until I return. The hum is a constant noise that does increase with volume. The amp has always had this hum since I built it and I just finally decided to do something about it. I can really only hear the hum when not playing through it. Everything does sound normal…[Read more]

No, no; I haven’t powered the amp yet. I simply discovered that the output wires (8 ohm and 4 ohm leads) from the OT both appeared to short to ground as I was going back through checking the continuity of everything. From what I hear, this is expected. I’ll be working on a cab this weekend and hopefully get that finished and I can power on the…[Read more]

Robin, thanks for the insight. I am using a switching jack on the input and it does short to ground when nothing is plugged in. The input is isolated when a plug is plugged in though. The issue I’m having appears at the output side of the amp between the OT black wire and, in my case, the yellow and white wires. From Beelzebum I understand…[Read more]
