i think we have the right schematic as there inductors listed in the eq section on the schematic.

Whoever is playing that thing better have high self esteem because those amps will take no prisoners. Just ask my father about the Summer of '79 ...

Yea the biggest thing I hear about this amp is saying it is loud is an understatement. I think the origional plan for this was a bass amp but I plan on using it as a guitar amp lol. I just hope I get it running. So are we in agreement that those 2 wires go to the locations posted prior? Also is anyone else seeing anything out of the ordinary? I don't want to blow 6 tubes all at once they get pricy quick

gotcha thanks, I never knew these things existed. Makes sense, I don't know why I didn't think of it lol. Basically, this will confirm that my bulbs won't blow when turning it on to test operations? or is that still a possibility? Also, did we confirm the placement of those 2 wires or was that still up in the air

Once wires are hooded up typically all tubes pulled and turn it on with the bulb limiter if bulb is dim good to go. If bulb is bright you may have a bad cap on the other side of the amp is a metal box ( the dog house have you looked at the caps in there?)

orange cap: 6ps2-s22 +-10% .022 600 DC the orange cap goes to the output knob which has a cap going to the distortion knob. The 33k goes to a .1 +- 10% @200 cap (the one over the 33k in the picture) on one side then goes to an eyelet with a 47k resistor via a white wire

Does the 33k connect to either of those and does the orange cap go to pin6 of V3 (the socket with the loose wires. Pin1 is the the one with the red wire ( I'm pretty sure where that goes.) Pin2 should connect at a junction of the 33k and a.047 cap.
