Does anyone have schematics for West amps? We have had 2 come in: a Fillmore & a Grande. The contact info I've found online for Dave West is no longer valid.
Thanks in advance!

They were made here in Lansing, and they were pretty basic tube amps. Good you got the drawings, but without them the circuit should be easy enough to trace.

Sorry, my post got scrambled.
I tried to say Dave was gravely ill a year ago, and I do not know how he is today or if he is still in business.Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.Comment

Good reminder about GFR , excellent solid no frills band
And those West amps are displayed prominently and do their job well ... who needs 43 channels, 1247 modes and so on?
Just a Fender preamp (or classic Marshall or Ampeg), a powerful amp stage, good iron and speakers, everything dimed and let's roll .
The Bass had the honest oldstyle tube overdriven sound which cuts through and is heard even on 2" computer speakers.
Who needs more than 4 knobs in an amp?
