1969 Marshall Plexi + H&H V800 80s Stereo Rack

[EddyLenz]

Hey Guys,

I finally got my H&H V800 back from service, so I had to quickly try it with this awesome Plexi before it goes back to its owner this week.

I restored the Plexi to about '68/69 specs but with higher filtering. Unfortunately, all the original signal and cathode caps were removed in what looked like the 90s and replaced with completely wrong value caps lol. I put in mostly TAD Mustards. It's got new JJ preamp and power amp tubes and F&T filter caps.

The rack is basically the Joe Holmes live setup with an SE70 and 2x SDE3000 + H&H V800
For this setup I used my 1991 Marshall 1960BX miced with an SM57 and a Lenz 2x12 that has one of the Greenbacks from the 1960BX, miced with an SM58.
No FX in the DAW.

Sounds killer! There’s no substitute for the real thing…all the parts in your chain add up to great tone.

Sounds great Eddy as always. Is this W/D/W or are you loading down the 69 into load box then reamping with the H&H V800?

Does this amp still have original transformers? Is it a 100 watt amp?

I thought you couldn't hardly get parts for H&H's anymore?

The Mosfets are gonzo but other parts are out there. HUGE LCR filter caps in mine

It's basically WD/WD using a load box and the V800.

It's a 50w Lead model and has the original transformers.

I think the Mosfets were fine. It just needed new filter caps and some other stuff checked and balanced.

Thanks! I really like the V800, although I never compared it to any other stereo power amp.
