 Guys I inherited the boards and PT from an old Peavey 300Watt amp  (combo with 15" spkr. , it was working)   It's marked 705-18720  Peavey electronics... Its HUGE and very heavy , and may be just the ticket for building a new SS amp .. if I knew something about it ...Any of you guys have any experience with one of these ... Thanks !!!

Amplifier Discussion / Re: Op amps in Yamaha G100

  Just a dumb question, but could anybody tell me how to improve/smooth the distortion tone (That knob) in my G100...???  Sorry, I'm a tube amp builder, and have limited knowledge of SS, but am willing to learn... :)  Mentioning op amps made me think of distortion pedals,diode clipping,and how those can be adjusted/biased... Thinking the same might apply to my OLD Yam..which still sounds pretty sweet...???? Used for Clean oldies venue, but when we tried the distortion , it was kinda' grainy ,ratty sounding, harsh really ...

  Every time I play this amp is just doesn't seem to have any "cut"...Speaker stock is a Celestion G12P-80 in the cab...Plugging the amp into different speakers  really makes a big difference in clarity...and improves the sound a lot...I know the speaker's broken in  having gigged a lot with it...Getting old dragging another spkr. cab to the gig, just have to replace the one in it... You guys have any experiences with this speaker and amp ???? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated...Thanks !!!  :)
