Description

This is my FET adaptation of a Marshall JCM 800 preamp simulated in LTspice. I kept the topology as faithful to the original as possible, while trying to match the frequency and gain response of each gain stage both independently and as a whole. v3 stands for the revision of my own circuit so far. I think I got pretty close to how the original sounds now. If I want to get even closer I might have to breadboard it moving forward and eventually build it. I aim for 9 Volts of power supply but will try 12 and 18 to see how it handles hot signals. All captures are fully calibrated. You can compare it against the original tube version I already uploaded some time ago. You may treat this pack both as a pedal or an amp head. Stack other overdrive pedals before it or place a high headroom clean amp after it. EQ controls are all set at noon position. Master volume is set at position 8. Use your ears and reduce or add output volume as needed. It should be able to be about 5 to 6 dB louder if master was set at position 10.
