It is basically a new run marshall tube combo amplifier.

I don't know there's going to be a ton of information in the way of schematics or other details on it. Since it's a two el34 output amp any normal marshall 50W output transformer 'might' work, but since we don't have details other than it uses 2xEL34 in the notes I just read on it, we'd be guessing.

Are you wanting to put in a 'better' OT or did the OT die? If the OT died since it's a pretty new amp, you can likely contact marshall support for a replacement.

I want to upgrade the transformer. Mercury Magnetics wants me to give them the dimensions and mounting info so they can see if they have something.
Hammond contacted me and said they had no info on it but if I give them my transformer that they will build me one at no cost.
That sounds like a deal.

Measure the mounting holes.
Measure the B+.
And confirm how it is biased.

You could shoot some pics too as it may or may not be through chassis mount and you may be able to just drill new mounting holes if it is mounted on the top of the chassis.
