Title: Super Supreaux deux
Post by: hoodoo on September 11, 2013, 06:15:27 AM
G'day to all, Matt here. Here's the latest, a Supreaux Deux from Often-fx. Very touch responsive, and It sounds great, just breaking up, but seems to get a bit wooly when the gain is turned up. I've got it dialled in at 12v, would like to hear from others that have built this, and hear what they have it set to. Also socketed cx, so i need to play around with it a little more. Second go at envirotex, turned out pretty good this time. Anyhow, here she is

Matt, this is looking great, dude. Your envirotex looks ten times better than my rattlecan clearcoat attempts. And the wiring it top-notch as well.

I think those old Supro amps get pretty wooly when cranked, almost hitting fuzz territory. So if this circuit behaves like that, that could be totally accurate. Not that I've played one of those amps personally, but that's what I've read.

Thanks gents, would love to have more time to build, but kids, work, wife, life, gets in the way sometimes, unfortunate  ;)

Looks good. Excellent job on the Enviro. I bought some of that but I'm to afraid to use it.

Ha, i know where you are coming from Bill. I was going to try this 6 or so builds ago, but the thought of sanding, painting and decaling again scared me a little  ;). Follow Juan and Cleggys tutorial and it isn't too hard, i'm an envirotex convert that's for sure, all the best, Matt.
