As fate would have it I just bought a Peavey Festival (Deuce). The iron is a fair bit bigger than the usual Fender option.
Does anyone know the specs for these transformers?

Just wondering if you had had the amp back to fit the front panel? if so did you investigate the interesting feedback you mentioned?

Not yet, faceplate arrived finally. In 1-3 weeks the amp is here for fitting the frontpanel and some measurements, pics etc.

Looks good
i like the minimalist look, I just had a diezel big max in for repair that has the same idea the face plate is very simple and clean looking.
