I was able to measure 52 ohms (out of

the
primary side and the yellow on the secondary.


For the TF/6-150

Primary
BRown (Plate) - Red (HT) - BLue (Plate)

Secondary
Yellow (8-ohm) - GReeN (4-ohm) - BLacK (ground)

Looks like the output
transformer is bad.


Could be. I would suggest full tests on the trafo.

Maybe the people at the Music Man Amps Discussion Forum can help you.

Here are the readings I measured:

Red to brown: 137k ohms.
Red to blue: 103 ohms.
Yellow to green: Less than 0.3 ohms.
Yellow to black: 0.4 ohms.
Red to yellow: 51 ohms.

No doubt about it, this transformer is bad.

Thanks for your reply.
