PT & OT specs for Hot Rod Deluxe?

[Stanz]

Does anyone know the voltage and amperage specs for the Hot Rod Deluxe transformers?

Voltages are easy enough, but I have not found any thing about listed specs, and do not have the means to measure amps.

I read a thread recently about someone who took their Hot Rod Deluxe and converted it into a Plexi. Gutted circuits and dropped in his own. Got me thinking. I have a Marshall 800 and a HiWatt 50W amp I am wanting to make, and this seemed like a good approach. Probably the HiWatt, only requires one extra hole for a 12AX7. Wanting to see if the existing PT will work for this project.

thx

Also have a look on The Fender Forum and http://studentweb.eku.edu/justin_hol...s.html#dealers

You might - with a bit of jiggery-pokery get away with the PT but the OT's 40W - they're meant to be pretty tough but I personally wouldn't try and shove any more than that through it - not on a regular basis anyway - I'm building a Bassman clone outta my HRDv remains - have a look...

Seriously though - the guys at the Fender forum are pretty helpful - good luck!
