    Re: NAD incoming!

    Meanwhile..... Postal working currently jamming on new amp.....


    Hope it turns up Bro!! And undamaged..
    Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.

        Post office guy took it home and it didn't go well with his collection of stolen Marshall and Vox, so he repacked it and slipped it back into shipping lanes??
        The one time I've had a guitar go missing in shipping, turns out the adhesive on the shipping label failed and it has fallen clean off, somehow, and they were scratching their heads waiting to figure out who it belonged to until I called them

          Yehaw!

          Arrived and in one piece! It sounds fantastic! I can see why people struggle to describe Brownface tone. Its totally unique. I'll have to record some demos and get them up here.

              Looks pretty epic. Glad it was only lost in the system for a bit. I have to try a Super Amp. They come highly recommended.

                I am so close to retirement that I could play in a band full time. All I have to do is figure out what to use instead of money, improve my playing, learn some songs, and find some other musicians more talented than me who will do exactly as they're told. .

                  Some more porn for you guys. Checked the transformer codes. Choke dates to August 1960. Power transformer is original. Output transformer isn't original however it is the vintage correct piece. It dates from Nov 1965. It shares the same OT as the Tremolux and Vibrolux so it was likely pulled from one of those amps.

                  All the caps and resistors that have been replaced are either Sprague or Mallory.

                  Power cord looks like it's from a copier or printer but it's three prong and has been grounded.

                      Sounds like it’s had all the right housekeeping done to give you a long time to enjoy that tone. So glad it worked out well!

                                Man that trem (vibe?) is Super sweet!

                                So the trem works on both channels?
