Interesting... so i bypassed all the SS by literally removing it from the chassis (unplugged the connectors for CN1a, CN2A, CN3b, and CN7a) and bolting a new input with a 1meg from input to ground just acting as a pull down resistor to the existing input hole. Then ran that input and ground to CN3a.
Sounds like we accomplished the same thing because i then had the input straight in to CN3b which is r13 (which I had changed it to 68k because that was what i found in other fender schematics).
But I am missing your 1meg in line before v1 right? I don't see that in other fender schematics. Seems very high. Is it serving a purpose there? Doesn't seem like it would do anything to the tone right? 68k in series with 1meg before v1...
Thanks for your help! Learning a lot.
It sounds good without the 1meg in series, so i think I have the tube amp part solid. Just wondering how the 1meg would effect it.
