Hans-Jörg, I can't scan here, but if you look at the Liverpool schematic, there is not much to it.

The VVR is installed between the standby switch and R31.

There are two blocking capacitors to keep from backfeeding DC voltage to your guitar when you turn it way down. There is a .1uF cap between the hot on the input jack and pin 7 on V1b. You will have to move the 1M grid resistor to the tube socket and go from pin 7 to ground. The second blocking capacitor goes between where C5 and C6 tie together to R*. Between this second capacitor and R* there is a 1M resistor to ground.

When you order the VVR, detailed instructions are included.

RJ's transformer sets and chassis work very well. There is a lot more work and tools required to drill the chassis than I would have imagined. The chassis I got from RJ was ready to go except for a couple of changes that I made to the original design that required additional holes. Plus he has everything you need (resistors, capacitors, pots, wire etc...), so you only have to pay for shipping once.

A guy really doesn't need a VVR. It is for the wife. :wink:

If I'd known that they worked on wives, I'd have one... which reminds me..

the blonde cop joke

So, a blonde is speeding along in a red Camaro putting on makeup when a blonde cop running a speed trap clocks her at 76 in a 55.

Off runs the blonde cop, lights flashing and siren blazing. She follows the blonde in the Camaro for about 2 miles until finally the driver realizes the cop means her.

The blonde cop walks up and says, "Yes ma'am. Good day. I need to see your license and registration, please.".

The blonde says, "Yes, officer." holds out her registration, and begins a painfully long search for her license.

She looks in her purse, the glove box, the console, an overnight bag in the back seat, under the mats, over the visors. Everywhere.

Finally, she asks the blonde officer "Excuse me, this may sound silly, but what's a license look like?"

"Yes ma'am." says the blonde officer. "It's a rectangle thing, has your picture on it.".

Finding her open compact in her purse, she tilts it open to see herself in the mirror.

"Oh! Stupid me! Here it is!"

"Shit!" Says the blonde cop. "If you had told me you were a cop, I would never have pulled you over!".

Good morning gents,
sorry for my stupid question, fore shure I saw the VVR at HALLs side.
Your beheivor is not different than in amp forums here. I apologize for my sillyness.
@Gibsonman63: I saw the 0,1µF cap on your build and was astonished. I thougt it might be a regional feedback.

I need a VVR because I´m no more in the age of gigging every week. But want to play the Liverpool wherever I want (including bedroom :D to play a song to my wife 8) )

The VVR sall be an option, not a must. Liverpool can live without it, shure.

Thank you for your help

Hans-Jörg
