what does the mode knob do?

what does the mode knob do?

good question, its an infinitely variable control over operating mode of the EF86 which is a small signal pentode tube. One way on mode will operate it like a pentode with a bypassed screen while the other way operates it in a neat triode mode with the screen and plate capactively shorted. In the middle you get somewhere inbetween even a psuedo ultra linear point somewhere alone the line which results in minimum gain.

not exactly my rig but oh well

That's badass. I really like the mode switch. Never heard of someone doing pentode triode switch for a pre amp tube before, much less putting that on a dial.

Question: is that 2 chokes in the power supply, or do you have an inductor in tone stack?

Just 1 choke, the other is a radioshack PT for the regulated 12V and 9V supplies, relays and the LEDs.

The pentode control is really nice, in pentode mode the EF86 has a stronger attack, much more gain, harder clipping while in triode the gain decreases, the clipping is softer, smoothed out response

Yeah that's a sharp front panel layout. Very clean and stylish hi-fi offering.

partially designed with customer, he wanted the EQD font so we used that and I designed it in Illustrator had it etched by Precision Design.

Somebody asked me in another thread how the purge is/was going. Well I'm happy to report I'm down to "A" and "B" rigs and a core of (10) guitars I won't part with.

[Metal and Beer]

My God, I hate your guts. (...and by hate, I mean love + jealousy)

[Jake]

Sheee-it, Señor Beer. I've seen your stash and you ain't no slouch in the facemelting gear department.

Plus, you guys all have something that I do not – you can play.

[bitter]

Nice rigs man.

I wish they'd start producing those heads again. I just don't care for combo amps. They're like the 4-doors of the car world.

I'm still thinking about a Carvin vt50 head but I don't know if they are comparable to the peavy's other than in the looks dept?

[VOLVO)))]

I've got a bunch of nice mediocre shit to hide how terrible of a player I am, too, Jake, don't feel bad...

[mutantcolors]

Peavey classic head?

Interesante, me gusta.

[clockwork green]

Jake, that pickguard on your Jr. has got me thinking I should spruce mine up a bit.

[Instant Dan]

I really want one of those Orange OTR's.

hey all.
i used to post on the old sr.com forums occasionally, under the moniker "celestialsunn."

don't know how it took me so long to find this, but i'm glad i did. sometimes it gets a little grimm over there at the doom forever forums.

here's my most recent rig:
