Truth, but other stuff does. And so you replace it...and maybe that stuff sounds a little different. And wall voltages increase, and tubes change, etc etc...
-
Right no I do get that. Being out of spec for the tubes is a problem. I was just off on a tangent about primary impedance varying but still in a safe ran...

Ok but does a +/- 1k impedance difference on the primary of an OT make enough of a difference to worry about when comparing to what we *think* vintage pieces...

In general, is that enough of a primary difference to make an actually audible difference?...

There's a local amp company here called Steamboat. They seem to use and prefer a lot of Edcor transformers. Not sure why, maybe they have a deal with them,...

I'm certainly no expert but I'd bet Dave's amps would sound good with just about any transformers.
I've had what I think is just fine results...

I almost bought some of these for a late 60s spec Plexi build. Not bad prices. Pretty much in the ballpark pricewise of everything else except for those...

I've got an original mid-67 AB165 here with me now. The blue caps are the only things that haven't gone bad.

Could you use it? Sure. But you're building a guitar amp not a Death Star....

The "bar across the pots" is unnecessary and frankly not the best way to do it anyway. Remove it and create a floating preamp ground buss that terminates...

That is a fairly simple amp so you might be able to re-engineer it. Go through the connections as others have mentioned, clean up that ghastly wiring, and...

Yeah the "tail" of the reverb lasts too long. And for me it's especially a problem with a 6G15 type reverb...which I personally use a lot. Run one...

Is it just me our do modern tanks have way too much decay? I've handled a decent amount of vintage spring tanks. They have a sound, no doubt. The modern equivalents...

With modern wall voltages what they are in the U.S., all of my amps have filaments that run up near 7v. Just yesterday I measured 126.8v from the wall. Texas...

I have a set of these super thin "bike wrenches" that work everywhere every time to get in those tight spaces between a chassis wall and a pot or...
