Service of a Laney VH100R

A Laney head in nice condition but has a problem with output volume going up and down.

Looking on the inside reveals one problem.

Capacitor C13 for the clean channel preamp is on the loose.

Turning the circuit board around to resolder the capacitor reveals the solid state components in the amp, mainly for the channel switching. A bit dirty so some cleaning.

The main problem with the amp was located in the Line In/Power amp in jack on the back of the amp. All the preamps signals are summed through the closing contact on that jack. Again, some cleaning solved that issue.

Last thing a much needed bias set, the Sovtek 5881 tubes wa running way cold.

New pedal under design update 2

Here we are in the work of my latest design. I’ve fitted the complete circuit in a Hammond 1590B chassie. Though the tweaking continues.

A possible new Zeta Sound pedal?

Stay tuned for more info. Earlier post.

New pedal under design.

Working on a new Zeta-Sound design. I’m in the tryout of a new idea. Right now the circuit is undergoing some testing and tweaking of component values. Making it sound as I imagined it would. We’ll see what comes out of it. Stay tuned for more info.
