is that a .comer on the dougstubes?

what happens if you have the chassis turned around? when viewing from the back the 2 closest tubes nearest the outer wall of the cabinet head are considered the outers 2 me and the 2 others are more inside

Big D- the gray look-n head is a PV 212 combo chassis turned upside down, and the material used is the plastic deck-n board you use on decks, it use to have a 12" blackback clest in the combo cab it was a amp I pulled out of the trash and did a Frankie on it , I wanted to put it upside down so...

B D the gray look-n head is a PV 212 combo chassis turned upside down so no one could tell what it is and the material used is plastic deck-n board, yanked this combo out of the trash, got it work-n and put a 12" blackback clest in in it, couldn't bare throw-n it back in the garbage so I used...

that's odd that you just mentioned that, yesterday I was watch-n a you tube vid of Lee Jackson install-n those hand made caps ! he praised them highly

BigD- I agree on the stubs and my ass-sumption was based on where he de-solder a couple of resistors and slipped new ones and re-solder on top ,I've had the amp for the better part of 45 yrs and I'm a stickler for not bang-n equipment around granted I played a llllllot of gigs with it for the...

they where the rave when they first came out, wonder if gold lion brand has 6550/EL 34s and not just KT88s and if they do there i'd say they would want a fortune, the JJs are cheep in price that's what draws every body to them -lesson learned not to sure about tube doctors tubes?

I would try Tube Doctor, ( Uncle Doug from you tube ) regards them highly for matched sets, I got -2- quad sets of JJs 6550s from tube depot and have had nothing but bad luck with them, take notice of two outer tube labels, then compare them to the two on the inner and the bias reading was...

Spider man I didn't look at it that way I took it that he was in a hurry, I 'll see if i can get a continuity test on the pads ? it's good to know there is people out there like you:worship:

Mr. Glip throw me some figs $ , not quiet sure on how you would make the 2 Vpots look old unless you have 2 old new stock Vs and as you can tell he liked romex just look at the output jacks and a few other spots throughout, it's good to know I'm not the only one with a 73 is yours ptp or partial...

thanks 4 the reply, I was just try-n to make it look good, and I couldn't make out the #s there are a lot of places on the board that need clean-n up the last tech that worked on it didn't lift the board to do any re-solder as you can see there are two caps that he just clipped the leads an...

Big D, thanks for the guidance info on the pic placement I'll give it a try ,I have a enlarged pic of the cap to load if everything works

I have one mustard cap on my Marshall that is eluding me due to it's chipped outer casing, can't load a pic of cap yet, cause you have to be Stephen Hawking to figure it out, so I was thinking one of yous would have a pic of the above mentioned circuit board, this board is most likely one of the...

they all checked out to specs?

No Im not say-n the tubes don't light up, the filaments all light up and the wall voltage is 120v ---2 tubes are run-n hot--- the other 2 are not, pardon the cold remark all i know is, if you touch the to hot tubes your gonna get burnt, if you tough the other 2 your not BUT 1 of the tubes that...
