    Stereo 5E3 Project

    So, I've decided to build a second Fender 5E3 to complete a stereo rig for guitar to pair with my DIY enclosures (2x 1x12"). I've used RobRobs mods in the past & plan on using the we effects loop mod (adding preamp out and power amp in). I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how I could...

    Found a clean pair of JBL D140F's, what should I use them for?

    Recently had some vintage speakers fall in my lap, a matching pair of 8ohm JBL D140F 15", I believe from the 60's? I'm a guitarist so I'm vaguely familiar, but the genres I play don't really serve these all that well and I'm scared to blow them up hahaha. Some people pointed me in this direction...

    Found an Old Unused Pair of JBL D140F 15" Speakers From The 60's, What Do?

    Sup friends, first post. Recently had some vintage speakers fall in my lap, a matching pair of 8ohm JBL D140F 15", I believe from the 60's, unused (or at least in immaculate condition). I'd comfortably call them NOS. I'm a guitarist so I'm vaguely familiar, but the genres I play don't really...

    Bell Sound System Tube Amp model 2215 -- 6cq8 tube

    Total noob. Bought a Bell 2215 with the idea (forgive me) of converting it into a Fender guitar circuit (Tweed Princeton or Vibrolux most likely). Signal path is 1 - 12ax7 --> tone stack --> 1 - 6cq8 ---> 2 - 6v6 The 6cq8 tetrode is the second amplification stage and the triode serves as the...

    Has anyone built one of these?

    I found this and it is really, really appealing for a spring project. I have a real vintage untouched Fender Champ but this looks like will be a better match for what I want. Not to mention I think it would be a ton of fun to build vs my normal restro work...

    Fender Twin Reverb Amp - Repair and Restore

    Another Fender Tube AMP on the bench, this time a perfect condition Fender Twin Reverb. This amp seems to blow fuses when power is supplied, therefore ending up in my hands. Wow, quite amazing, I may be the first one in this amp, as it would seem. This however lends itself...

    What would cause a power transformer to act like this?

    Hey folks -- I'm repairing a non-working Fender Blues Junior as part of a barter. The owner says - "It worked before it went into storage, but as you can see, it was stored badly" -- the chrome has obvious signs of ambient moisture (hooray San Francisco fog). The initial check indicates that...

    Using a 5W4GT in place of 5Y3GT on Princeton 5F2a

    Hello, I have a home-built 5f2a that has been running and sounding great for years. My 5Y3 was lost in a move and I have a 5W4 on hand. Also lost my 6V6 and have a new Sovtek to drop in. Any problems dropping them in to see how they sound? Is it guaranteed that i'll need to re-bias the amp...

    Fender 'Super -Amp' 5F4 build

    I recently bought an old guitar amp chassis for the excellent audio output transformer on it. Looking more closely at the chassis and components, and drawing the schematic, I see it is quite similar to the Fender Super-Amp 5F4. Schematic for that amp here: http://i.imgur.com/SOSZRvJ.gif On...
