Rather than shopping over the internet I would go Jaycar. They have 25V 160VA or 18V 300VA.

Would the 160VA work, I ask because its around $20 cheaper

Ive just looked at the chipamp website and the power supply has me confused.

Im not even going to attempt to build the power supply before I understand a few things, I figure this is the best place to ask them.

1. I need help on which transformer to use, Ive made stuff to plug into mains before but that was using an AC transformer which was storebought to power the circuit which was a 12v regulated power supply

2.Which fuses? Ceramic, M205, 3AG,

These are my main concerns at the moment that I would like to overcome before attempting the power supply.

*EDIT* OK after reading a bit more I think what I need is a transformer at least 160 VA with 2 secondary winding between 18 and 25 volts, The only thing close to that I can easily get a hold of is a toroid, Will this work? The one I am looking at is Jaycar Cat Number MT-2113 (18 Volts) or MT-2114 (25 Volts).

I think I understand a bit more now that I have read the LM3886 build guide and looked at pictures from chipamp, but I would still rather be sure.

Yeah and it sounds pretty good, I primarily play metal and heavy rock and I like the slightly bassier tone.

I ask because I really like the Ampeg SVT, Is it worth it to mod it to a guitar and can it be done.

Everyone has told me that pluging a bass into a guitar amp can damage it, Is this true and if so why.

What makes a bass amp and a guitar amp so different and can a bass amp be modded into a guitar amp?

I know its an actual spring reverb, I picked it up and move it once when it was one. Frightened the living *s!!t* out of me.

Amplifier Discussion / Reverb Tanks In Amps

I have a Fender FM65R which I love, but the reverb is so subtle. Is this the tank itself or somthing else.

Just curious whats the best way to set these LM3886s up?

Are they better as a head and cabinet deal or just a simple all in one? Can they they cleanly drive a 4x12 or a 2x12?

Does anyone do this. I was at work last night and new cash registers came in, They were packed in the wavy foam stuff that looks just like the sound proof foam, I figured I might as well give it a go since it wont cost me anything.

Does anyone here use the stuff on the inside of their cabs etc.

Preamps and Effects / I see a Wah in the making.
June 11, 2006, 10:43:27 PM
I was going through the garage the other day and found my mums old sewing machine, I didint wirk so I took the pedal apart. It works in the same way as a wah shell, Granted it didint have a potentionmeter but it has a (Dont flame me over this I have no idea what they are called) little plastic bit that moves up and down inside the pedal when you rock your foot, Just like the bit that turns the pot in a wah.

Guess I'll be buying some wah pots soon and giving it a shot, If I can I will get some pics up.
