Boob Tube (Valvecaster) Road Rage and Klon Buffer content

You're right, I'm missing the 47n before the gain pot.
I'll fix it and upload again.

Fixed, just do a browser refresh.

Ok ! But what's up with r3 or 100k? Cleggy is still keeping it on his schem, but Juansolo said:

3.What is happening with r3 (100k) and the 3rd lug of the tone Pot?

The tone pot is really just a treble cut. Pin 3 is not connected. 2 goes via a cap to ground and 1 connects to the output of the circuit and vol pin 3 (output is vol pin 2).

The R3 and R2 resistors mentioned by Cleggy the power feed to the plates. The 23-45v feed goes via them to pin 1 and 6 of the tube socket.

Should I use it or not?

Thanks !!

The 100k is needed.

Ei Juan !

Let me ask you something ! I've been thinking on making a Valvecaster and a Tube Boob together, powered with 12v (valvecaster) and 12 & 23v (tube boob). I will use 2 12BH7 (brimar) as you said is your best favourite one (i will trust you).

I will be using the valvecaster as a booster / lightly overdrive and the Tube boob as a pure overdrive. What do you think??

The Boob Tube is lower gain than the VC so more suitable as a booster, the VC doesnt clean up as well as the BT.  Lowering the resistors on the anodes will lower the gain if you need to.

Thanks Man !! Your comments have been very useful !!
