Hi,
not sure if this part of the forum is much frequented at all but I`ll try it anyway.
I have an old Blackface module where a 1.8k resistor is at position R17. In the Pearson Component Spreadsheet R17 is a 4.7k resistor. Does anybody know, what R17 is for an how it affects the tone of the module?
Thanks
 
Ok guys, I`ve found the answer. R17 (as well as R29) influence the bias point of the tubes and therefore affect the clean headroom of the module.
