My 2 cents - Don’t mess with the effects loop if it’s working

Re: I got a new amp today.
This just in:
Amp guy called today.
I ran 44 minutes up to his shop.
He told me stories of how this could be designed better, how it's been repaired 3x now, since he could count the layers of heat grease.
He claims that is probably the biggest problem, too much grease on there from techs in the past.
Good call GoldenV
He Told me that Shure makes 600w chips that he could mod to fit this amp, making it a super beast and more reliable.
I told him if it runs, I'm selling it straight away.
He said it all tested it out well, and those resistors were perfect.
Said he had it running on the bench for a few hours and by the way, "this amp sounds flat out amazing!" This coming from a tube snob made me feel pretty good about that part at least.
It took him twice as long as he thought it would, saying these mod boards are worn out from resoldering chips to them.
Anyhow.... I hooked it up.... Rather nervous I must say to click the power on..... If it blows up again, I'm out another $200....
Video uploading. . . . Keep your fingers crossed boys! Could be Sparks or fire headed your way.Last edited by 80's_Metal; 04-18-2019, 10:02 PM.

Got the amp to the local amp whisperer. We talked about it's special-ness. He seemed to understand pretty well.
We'll know in a few days if it works again.

Were you playing Kix on through the amp when you blew the fuse??? Sorry, just had to say it.. I hope its fixable and glad the seller was a stand up dude..

Re: I got a new amp today.
You could do that. The 10 watt ones might be longer though and not fit next to each other, without a bit of mounting creativity.

Re: I got a new amp today.
I would think that the wires could be bent as long as the value is the same.

Re: I got a new amp today.
Alright here's my next question: and it may be a dumb one but here goes...
All I can find in these have the wire just poking out the end.
Whereas the ones in the amp have a different look to them, the leads stick out the bottom....
Pictures:
So..... Do I just order regular ones? Because the solder guy can just bend them and solder them in place, OR do they have to be just like the ones one the board now, and he'll have to order those dang things because I can't seem to find them?
