Did you possibly get an ohms measurement on the 100k trimmer, that is glued in place. ?

That accounts for the dirt that amp has at low settings.

Yes, it's a gainy amp. With this amp if you want Ford-Carlton tones you need to use the jazz switch. :D

I am curious Redshark. How was the OD trimmer measured? Typically to measure the setting, the amp is on (not on standby) and in OD mode and it is measured from the wiper to ground. I only ask because if you measure across the timmer with the amp off, you get a slightly lower then marked value of the trimmer. Thanks again for the intel.

Charlie, the amp was off when I took measure.
I will look for more pics of the amp.

Question....

Can I get a part number for the male plug to try to build a footswitch for the amp?

Thanks!!

Thought I was going to be able to send you one for your kindness, I searched my parts bin and found the fem 4 pin XLR jack and the plug housing, but the not the 4 pin plug internals....sucks.
