The Amp Garage

While we're piling on Tony Bruno... A dozen or so years ago there was a gear page shootout in DC (perhaps a bad choice of words this week and I hope that doesn't trigger NSA attention) between the Fargen Blackbird and a Bruno Cowtipper. A old Fender was included so everyone could judge whose amp sou...

I'm so happy these have gone to a good home. Enjoy!

Here are some pics of the half dozen Gomez chassis I have collecting dust. 20.25" wide. No face plates and none I know that you could buy. Sitting on top of a Mojo cabinet. Tight squeeze...

I've got a few of the old Gomez Amplification versions of the 6G6 chassis. No on makes a faceplate for them today and they're not exact, but pretty close. I think I paid $30 a piece for them back in the day. Collecting dust...

You may have also provided an explanation for the increased value of used Dumbles.

The carling-style with both lugs on top works well in that location.

What does the community believe the important dates and events are with regard to Dale RN65 resistors? What are the changes that took place to the actual resistor and what were the dates? At what point after Vishay acquired Dale did they modify the manufacturing of the RN and CMF series? When did th...

I have quantities of pre-RoHS and vintage 147K and 150K RN65 and RN70 metal film resistors I am interested in trading for 220K.

The cap that was removed had a long lead that also served as a jumper. You’ll need to throw one in that location.

Thanks, Tony, Stelligan, Marcus and Phil for the very helpful information.

Thanks, Marcus!

Tony, In the clip you posted, does the dry signal flow serial through the Lexicon LXP-15 or are you you running the dry and wet in parallel (dry not through LXP)? If it is serial can you recommend a good smaller lexicon reverb for gigging with a serial loop? My preference would be something that is ...

1. Try swapping in a another tube and see if the voltages move
2. Ensure your resistors are within 10% of their values by measuring them.
3. Check for leaking caps by lifting one end of the input; AC shunt; and coupling caps
