Hi All,
I was commissioned last week (indirectly) by Humboldt County musical legend Brooks Otis to resurrect a 1930s era guitar amplifier he has, and I thought it might be fun to take y'all on the ride with me. I'll post pictures a little down the line, but the essential spec's are:
1st audio, 57; 2nd audio, 56; phase inverter, center tapped AF choke (more on that later); output, push-pull 45s; rectifier, 80.
I figure this thing is probably good for around 12~15 watts at obscene amounts of distortion. The field coil magnet 8" speaker appears to be in good condition, but the amp, itself, has been attacked by more than one turkeytech over the years, so my job's cut out for me.
This should be a real interesting journey . . .
