Hi,
I've been told that this little PA amp is mid to late 40's and that it should produce about 15w.
1 x 5Y3G1 Mullard Rectifer tube
1 x 6V6GT MiniWatt Power tube
1 x 6V6GT Mullard Power tube
1 x 6C6 MiniWatt PreAmp tube
1 x 6J7G RadioTron PreAmp tube
1 x 6C6 JAN Nation Union USA PreAmp tube
I found this amp in an old factory that I purchased in Australia a few years ago and saved it from being trashed - no reason I just liked it and thought that one day I might tinker with it to see what it is.
That time has come as my 14 year old son has been playing guitar for a year through a Roland Cube 60 and has now discovered the joys of tone from tube amps hence I'd like to rebuild the amp as a father son project.
I have experience in electronics (but not tube) so this will be an exciting learning curve.
Any ideas of what it could become would be appreciated
I hope you find this early amp interesting - just PM me if you would like high resolution images of the circuit.
Cheers,
Nigel
