"Gareth Magennis"

Found the problem - the reverb tray input coil (8 ohm) was shorted.


** Bull****.

It normally measures less than 1 ohm on a DC meter.


The 2K7 resistor supplies the reverb transformer primary via the 12AT7
driver, which I have now replaced.


** Yawn......


Now just waiting for another tray.


** Why ?????????????????????????????

Reverb tank drive coils NEVER fail short.


YOU are a ASININE PITA ****WIT !!!!!


( snip pile of half witted abuse)


** Hey Gareth !

Go shove you pompous and idiotic opinions where the sun don't shine.


As usual, you are right, I measured the 8 ohm coil at about 0.8 ohms and
assumed it was damaged.


** First YOU assumed a complete nonsense, then acted on that assumption,
ordered an expensive part and THEN boasted here about it. Just like the
PITA, narcissistic, ****** you are.



You could have stepped in and pointed out my error in a civilised manner
but regretfully chose not to.


** You are in NO position to criticise or talk down to those trying to
advise YOU.

I find YOUR attitude extremely offensive.

If you want to know something - then ASK !!

If you think you already know - then **** OFF.



BTW

Guitar amp repairs are not the topic of this NG.

**** off back to AGA or where ever it is that crackpots & fools advise
****wits like you how to screw up their amplifiers and electrocute
themselves.
