Nils, Thanks for the reply  
 
 
 
I also included the .1uF cap in the PI. In all the pictures of the guts of Dumbles I saw one there--kinda thought there had to be one there actually.  
 
 
 
How'd it sound? I heard it was suppose to be dark sounding but found mine too bright. I had added a 500pF in the tone stack instead of the 330pF. I dropped it to a 250, no bright switch connected yet and it seemed to really work out for me.  
 
 
 
I also had the ringing, I forgot those caps in the OD section I'm assuming also. Haven't added them since I haven't had time. But with the input to the OD right below the threshold of the ringing it was a very smooth, pleasant overdrive that sounded fantastic. I am running a 5751 in the OD slot.  
 
 
 
What did you do for the driver tube--I ended up with a 12AT7 in mine. Again haven't had time to experiment but with what I heard I don't think I have too much to do.  
 
 
 
Sorry about the questions--very curious about others builds  
 
 
 
thanks  
 
 
 
bw
