Rocket Cut control placment
Ran out of room on the front on the amp for the Cut control. Is this control very substitutable noise or hiss? If you look at the picture, I'm thinking about putting it between the cathode bias cap/resistor and the switch on the right. Should this be ok? The switch on the left is for half power, the switch on the right brings in a cap over 2nd gain stage cathode (switch between .68, none, 4.7uf and can be turned on via footswitch. The switch on the front next to the input switches a 330k across the 68k driving the tonestack to 56k to boost or cut gain, and there is a Master Volume (talking the cut controls front panel space).

I'm using a shielded cable for the cut control. don't remember who recommended it. the pot itself shouldn't pick up much noise since it is grounded

On a tangent, what's up with the old domino caps in a TW? Where'd you get 'em?

Wanted to try the domino caps, I know Alessandro likes them. I bought them on eBay. Not quite a exact clone but close. I would like to add a High/low voltage switch but the only place I may be able to put it is next to the OT. Would that cause any problems?

Would a alpha mini 250k pot be too small for the cut control?

It's fine, I'm using one in my AC15 style amp.johndandry wrote:Would a alpha mini 250k pot be too small for the cut control?
