ELS, as far as the filters go I’m just going close to what Fender did(3-16uf and an 8uf in the preamp)F&T didn’t make those values so I went with 3-22uf caps and for the preamp it’s an 10uf.Add the 470 ohm resistors, they fix many headaches and don't change the tone much at all.
If you connect the screens to the extra OPT taps, you'll have an ultralinear output which usuallys sounds a bit more plain, And it distorts sharper, sort of like a solid state amp. It stays very clean until snapping into overdrive.
But you can instead just connect the screen supply to the plate connection if you want a more standard config, I'd suggest that.
Also, I'd recommend connecting the OPT center tap to before the power supply filter choke, and the screens after the choke. This puts much less strain on the filter choke, Also it makes the tone creamier because of some intermodulation distortion.
You can make the first filter cap a 47uF. the farther down the line the filter cap is, the lower the value should be because if you put like a 200uF filter cap on the preamp supply, if the power supply sags, it will take a long time to recover and will sound awful. That's why you should do the most filter in the early power supply stages, because there it will recover much faster even with high capacitance values
I did see in other schematics Fender did split up the plates before and screens after the choke.
I was going to stay dedicated to the Tweed Pro schematic but if it makes it that much better I may do your recommendation, can you elaborate a little more in that?
Cheers
