chris	Re: AC15 clone problem Bruce, i wonder if it is high osc. I installed th res between the 33mu caps: reduced hum, more ghost notes; added another 33 mu to 1st cap: like before, but with less hum. depending on the setting of the eq pots in the top boost channel I now have a max at third secondary of OT ~15mV. Too much? without res as choke ~65mV. Hum is ok now for me, and no radio, but there are ghost notes, pronounced at some frets. is this what you where thinking of? thanks

Bruce,

i wonder if it is high osc. I installed th res between the 33mu caps: reduced hum, more ghost notes; added another 33 mu to 1st cap: like before, but with less hum. depending on the setting of the eq pots in the top boost channel I now have a max at third secondary of OT ~15mV. Too much? without res as choke ~65mV. Hum is ok now for me, and no radio, but there are ghost notes, pronounced at some frets.

is this what you where thinking of?

thanks
