FYI

The relay board here is one of mine! Both the "status"LEDs (on the board), and the front panel LEDs (if used) are fed from a 560 ohm resistor along the side of each relay.
The footswitch should be wired with a 560 ohm resistor in line from the full DC supply.

I made small changes in this last design to enable all nine LEDs to operate without having the voltage drop too much to work. In the end, with some modifications including the FWB rectifier, I could reliably operate the switching mechanism with the wall voltage down to about 75VAC.

Attached is the full wiring diagram for all the LEDs

Sorry didn't mean anything by my comment but usually when someone takes the trouble to make a thread about their build they are willing to answer a few questions about the amp.
I asked several questions and was ignored.

Sorry about that. I run a full time pest control outfit and play in two bands. I am also building a bass amp and a train wreck express.

I have a question for you.

What value do you have in the treble cap spot?
It's the third orange drop from the right.

A little tip for you although it's a bit late for the suggestion is to mount your components so you can read the values. I found this out after I had changed some things and didn't record them.
Later I couldn't remember what was where. :wink:
.002uf All of the componants can be read.

Thanks,

MD

Standardize the colors to the tubes. I use Red for plates, Green for grids, Yellow for cathodes and Blue for screens. I see you've used a variety of colors, but if you standardize it'll be easier to find a wiring mistake later.

JMO.

Looking good so far.
I actually ran out of wire.
