The Celtic Franklin has landed... Initial Tone Report

Re: The Celtic Franklin has landed... Initial Tone Report

I'll never make everyone happy. Also due the major chance that whatever I build, I'll be stuck with, I'm making them to make me happy. If anyone else wants to jump into the back of the tone truch and join me, that's cool.

no firebreathers yet. I'm kinda partial to amps that you have to mic in big club situations. But........

I am looking into increasing the Franklins power amp from 15 to 30 watts. (4xEL84)

Make that 2x30 watts (or 2x50 w/ 6L6s), add an extra gain stage, make it rackable, and you´ve probably got a winner

Keep that reverb out of there! If you want reverb, get a pedal or an external unit - it will sound better anyway.

Hey Scott, is there an effects loop? If yes, parallel or series?

+1 ... that is definitely something I would use.
