AX84 Lead II Tube Guitar Amplifier Projects
[All Lead II Projects]
[All Associate Projects] [All Projects]
Overview
The Lead II series of amp projects are designed to give you more gain,
and distortion than either the HO or SEL. Originally, the idea
was for just one design, but several of the participants in the
original project took the semi-final design and applied their own
tuning ideas to it. The result was three different amps that have
thier own unique voices and character.
Skill Level: ADVANCED
--- Status: Ready to Build.
NOTE: New builders should NOT attempt
these projects as a first build. All of these amp designs are VERY sensitive
to layout and lead-dress. If you don't have several builds under
your belt prior to attempting one of the projects, you are NOT
likely to succeed without extensive debugging, if at all.
You have been warned.

AX84 Lead II Design
This is the preamp design that the members came up with before striking
out on thier own. There are some very interesting ideas in this
preamp, particularly the first two stages and the unique tone
stack. Mainly this is here for reference.
