Is it just me,or has anyone else noticed the sweet way these feedback a lot sooner than the other era builds. You play the feedback and ride it like a wave. It's pretty amazing, and I wish all.my builds would feedback like my JTM 45/100 Dickenson Spec (but with a 32uf bypass on V2)... I wish I could identify why. Sometimes I wonder if I wired something wrong and did thisby mistake. If I find out it's a mistake, I'm naming it the mistake feedback mod and cashing in!!

You sure you just didn't build it right and it's doing what it's supposed to? I've had a lot of JTM 45/100 clients tell me the same thing when they get theirs dialed in.

Maybe I did it right. It's the only JTM 45/100 I ever built, I've built loads of 1959s, 12000, and 10000s.... I do have another JTM 45/100 OT that I will one day build another.

It's highly likely IMO. I built two 50w heads from George's kits and I'm basically a "solder by numbers/pictures" guy. All I did was try to mimic exactly what George did in the pics, including getting more than a little anal about lead dress, number of twists of the heater wires, etc.

They both sound incredible. Even Dave Friedman looked at me funny when he heard one and found out it was the 2nd amp I ever built.

So I have to figure if I did it...surely a bunch of other people have...why not you?

I love the JTM 45/100, but I would like to understand why it feedsback earlier than the other amps, so I could make my other amps do that.
