Trying to remember now, that was hours agoVERY curious how it sounds.
Did you place the EQ pre-gain or post-gain?

Then sign me up for a HWLR!Trying to remember now, that was hours agoI know tone control on the original was post LM308 gain but pre tube gain, if I remember right I moved the baxandall stack to the very end with a tube output buffer after the tube gain stage.
A little bit of history is up for sale in the Classifieds ... totally affiliated.
Taking my Finally to its first gig...finally. Been sitting powered at 12V for maybe 30min now and there's definitely a plasticy smell? Not burning per se. This is fine right?there's really two electrical smells, fried components and hot components
The first couple times I ran my Space Heaters, I noticed an odd smell.Taking my Finally to its first gig...finally. Been sitting powered at 12V for maybe 30min now and there's definitely a plasticy smell? Not burning per se. This is fine right?![]()
It’s the “mojo” sauce, getting baked in.The first couple times I ran my Space Heaters, I noticed an odd smell.
It eventually went away.
I was a little befuddled when I noticed that smell, too.Awesome, thanks for the quick response. First set down, so far so good!

Just realized I had posted this in the wrong thread, that was weird
So I was thinking about doing a Dr. Wattson/JC Emerald shootout, and I can't seem to find my Dr. Wattson. I keep all the pedals not on ny board on a couple shelves, and DW is not there. Weird.
If you find it, I’d be very interested in hearing that.Just realized I had posted this in the wrong thread, that was weird

Cool story, thanks for sharing! And a hat tip to @DirtyDuke for his instrumental role.
I found it, turns out it had fallen off the shelf in between my bass cab and my drumkit.If you find it, I’d be very interested in hearing that.

So as I was working on enclosures tonight I had a thought about JC Emerald and Sunnday Drive, neither of which I sell a lot of and both of which I was considering discontinuing. I want to try giving them the UA treatment. The circuits are really similar, I want to combine the aspects I like of both into a new preamp and get rid of both. Sunday Emerald? Emerald Drive? I don't know, I'll come up with something.
