Summary

25-Watt Solid-State Guitar-Amp with 2-Band Tone + Fuzz


Description

25-watt RMS solid-state guitar-amp with 2-band active tone-control and shunt-type Schottky-diode fuzz. Controls Include: Input Level, Gain, Fuzz enable switch, Fuzz symmetry switches, Fuzz Depth, Bass, Treble, and Volume. Frequency Range 48 Hz to 3 kHz with all controls at 50%, or 19 Hz to 18 kHz with all controls at 100%. Suitable for 6/7-string guitar. Can be used as a practice-amp or as a low-power studio-amp for recording. Maximum Gain = +26.8 dBV @ 250 Hz with all controls at 50%, or +58.3 dBV @ 250 Hz with all controls at 100%. [Do not use with all controls at 100% except as a brief worst-case scenario while breadboard testing.] Power-supply not shown. Requires two supplies; one regulated dual-polarity +-15VDC @ 150 mA for the op-amps, and one unregulated dual-polarity +-24VDC @ 1A for the power-amp IC. And though simulator verified, treat the circuit as experimental. Breadboard test before committing to a soldered build. Example Speaker: Celestion "Ten 30" Creamback Guitar Speaker, 10", 30W, model G10R-30. Parts Express # 294-2472. $52.50 https://www.parts-express.com
