I'm curious how you did the cascade without affecting the normal channel...i.e. so the normal channel won't see the cascade pot as a variable grid leak. I'm guessing you could ground the cascade pot to the switching lug of the clean input?

Very nice. I'm assuming you're at NAMM? Could you please ask kindly for a couple of those new prod varistors for me :D But seriously, any intel on the new ones?

Interesting PCB- Large through-plated holes used for multiple leads like eyelets. Anybody ever seen that done before?

What amp is that?

Man that is a crowed chassis.

Are the big blue discs with the letter 'M' the varistors?
