Another victory for the SD Pickup Booster!

Re: Another victory for the SD Pickup Booster!

Well, I am happy the Pickup Booster worked, but that should be a rockin' amp on its own.

Re: Another victory for the SD Pickup Booster!

So what did you do to fix it?

All I did was replace R8 470 Ohm res at pin 8 with a 136.5 Ohm res.

Excellent work.

Re: Another victory for the SD Pickup Booster!

Why not a 12AY7?
12AU7 is lot lower in gain.

Glad you got it working!

That's what I was thinking, too.

Imagine how much better it'll sound with a 12AY7 AND the booster?

EDIT: For some reason the whole thread didn't load for me before I replied... Weird. I see you fixed it.

So, you changed the bias point on V1B, lowering the gain. Interesting since the actual Fender schematic calls for a 1500 ohm resistor.
