  • Failsafe for bias trim pot on Ampeg B25

    Hi all,

    I have a '72 Ampeg B25 I am refurbing.

    I want to put in a trim pot to allow for adjustable bias.

    I know I can just put a trim pot in (say, 50k with a ~22k resistor in series) but I want to have a failsafe to prevent damage to the amp/7027s if the trim pot's wiper fails.

    How do I go about doing this?

    Schematic of amp in question.​

    Replacing R38 with a resistor and pot in series would be fail safe.

      If you can't fix it, I probably can.
