Sometimes 'Googling' can be more of an art than a science.

Yes jazz bass.
I was looking a few days earlier and i did find a schematic. Just used it to confirm the out transistor types. as somebody had changed one and used a blow torch to change it
when i went back today i couldn't find it. I had deleted my history too

Now all ive got to do is get the thing working

Man I hate when that happens.
You find something & then you go back & you can't.

The schematic post is poor and to get a better down loadable copy. you have to pay. F$%K That ill find another if i can find the problem
Channel 2 is down no volume at all but a strange sound every 5-10 seconds. I had changed the jack sockets as in poor state. Then the power stages blow.
Poor workmanship on it, so now back to the original fault. Its 5pm here and a nice cup of English tea and sit down watch some television

Its great when you work from home !! well maybe until customer want to come round at 8pm to collect or drop off lol

I feel bad that that schem WAS so bad. I just looked at Fenders site and they list the deluxe 85 as being able to get free. Here's their site link'
