The original used a firecracker style 20uF/20uF 300V capacitor. Its a little buzzy so was thinking of swapping the filter caps. I can send you the schematic for this if you want. A friend asked me to look over his Musicmaster Bass amp (6V6 model). My wife's Gibson 339 sounds real good through it, as it is a bit of a bright guitar. With the volume control stacked on the top of the on/off switch, I had to carefully disassemble and change the resistor plate in the volume control from 250K to 1meg. Also, I prefer 6V6's, and took out the 6AQ5's. Didnt think anything about it then, but Ive since been kicking myself for passing on it. The first one I saw was clean with all the important updates and a 15' speaker swap. I didn't desecrate the faceplate, I made a new one. Ive always lusted after those Musicmaster Bass Amps. I changed my musicmaster to a standard Fender front end with a 1meg volume, 250K treble and 250K bass control between V1A and V1B. I was stuck with them too much in the 60's.

I won't mod a blackface or earlier, but for me certain silverfaces are open game. And push pull on the cathode biased power tubes took me back to the old Princeton I once had. The transformer phase inverter was unique. I picked up a Musicmaster Bass amp in the mid 90's. Also blues Jr.s are dark sound and I never liked the tone no matter what I did to it. The blues junior reverb is solid state anyway and a reverb pedal would probably sound better then anything the blues junior would give you. I have had blues juniors and I think this setup would sound a lot better. An amp with 2 would really push a higher efficiency 12 like a blue or red fang or any other emi speaker which all have very high SPL levels and sound great. I had a few of those Blackheart amps with an EL-84 and they were pretty loud with a speaker like a celestion Blue. This setup will probably give you about 10 watts. You could also make a tone stack easily by moving the volume control to the second input and using the volume/tone controls as a treble mid with either a typical Fender or Baxandall tone stack. If you use the Hammond it's a matter of making an extra hole to mount it. Transformer balanced inputs and 4 bands of sweet eq, with inductors on the middle bands. Not much work to do.and you don't have to hack the amp apart. It's better to probably use a Hammond SE 10 watt OT at 2.5K primary for this setup. You could probably use the same OT just eliminate the middle wire. Hook it all up the same as a champ amp but parallel the power tubes. 022 cap, grounded 220k resistor and a 1.5K screen resistor. How about making this amp a champ amp but with paralleled power tubes.ĭisconnect the PI transformer and add a. Here's some of the projects I've worked on lately. I was thinking that maybe just adding a Hammond reverb unit to the Stout might be another option. I would'nt be looking for another amp if it wasn't for the fact that my Stout doesn't have reverb or that Fendery gangle when I want it. They were pretty much what I was thinking too if I had the time. The 18W Stout(Blues Bandit) I did build took alot of time and I'm pretty burned out from major projects. I have way too much honey-do stuff to do and I simply can't find the time.

Used in the Fender Vibroking with 6V6 reverb driver tube and the 63 Fender Reverb Reissue amp. I currently have an early 70s orange label Utah/Fender in it that made a big difference to get a more Fender-ish tone. simple tone circuit, a fairly uncommon transformer PI, a pair of 6V6s and a solid state recto.
