    Marshall JMP questions

    Looking for help from some Marshall experts. My buddy found what I think is a good price on a 1982 Marshall JMP 2203. It says its a German edition. It also has double master volumes that they describe for rhythmic/solo settings without drilling extra holes they said. How long did they make...

    T-tops back in LP custom and swapping pickups in a 03 LP standard LE

    Inspired by @glpg80 and his killer 76 lp custom, I am considering a pickup change in my Les Pauls. The 73 LP custom I have black top suhr thornbuckers with the option for series/parallel on the push pull tone pots. Love the pickups in this guitar, it always sounds thick and mean. Learned long...

    Ampeg Vh140C fuse value

    I am servicing an Ampeg Vh140C and the fuse blew. Surprisingly it was a 6.25A 250V fuse and looks to be slo-blow. This seems really high to me. I checked the service manual and it does not list the fuse value or type. The amp has listed near the power input 500W, 120V, 60Hz. Any help would be...

    HBE plank cranker owners

    I am trying to fix my HBE plank cranker and found that I have a burnt out resistor. Problem is that I can't measure it (measures open) and I can't see the stripes well enough to determine its value. So I am hoping to find an owner who will snap a picture of the insides so that I can read the...

    Portable boxed variacs for running a lower line voltage

    Today I am using a small variac that is plugged in tom rack power conditioner with a display so I can set the voltage before turning on the amp. I like running my vintage amps at 115vac as I notice they seem to be a bit cleaner, less noisey, and more consistent day to day. The issue is now...

    Favorite Tone Control Wiring in a Strat

    A friend of mine was in town a while ago with his SSS strat. He was raving about removing the tone pot from the middle pickup. So that got me thinking about trying it. Been looking into different options. Here is a picture of my 3 strats. Left one is a MIM with a BL L280 in the neck and...

    Crate Palomino noisey at end of notes

    So the Crate I worked on here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=156008 Is back again for some work. Symptoms were a rattling sound on the finish of the note, like a microphonic tube. Pulled the chassis and I no longer hear the clinky sound, but now I hear a hissy unmusical distortion on the end of the...
