Title: Fender 6G14-A with harmonic tremolo
Post by: guitardude57 on February 12, 2018, 08:16:11 pm

Anyone have any schemos for the Fender 6G14-A with harmonic tremolo
I heard a vid on this amp, and must say, it is the best sounding tremolo built in an amp ever!

I have a bud that wants one, and may make a 6V6 powered version for myself...

Thanks!

The schematic is in Hoffman's Tube Amp Schematics library. Link at the bottom of this page.

You may also be interested in the Revibe which combined the 6G15 reverb unit and the 6G12 harmonic vibrator circuit into a single unit that you can use with any amp. Several of us have built the Revibe.

Thanx Steve.


I have seen the Schemo page and did not see the 6G14A.
This one uses 2 1/2 tubes for the tremelo... so is different than the one listed.




There is 3 different circuits for this type of tremolo, and the one for me is the 6G14A.
It is pretty remarkable.

Here is a you tube of a clone of this amp.


Give it a listen.

Don't know how you missed it. It's right there with all the other 6G14s. There's even a 6G14B but when you open it you will find a 6G14A schematic.

Thanks, I found it.
#308 out of 458...lol


My eyes are goofy, I have been repairing a pile of Crown MA 2400's,
and the schematics and parts placements, have squirreled up my old eyes.


Thanks again!

It can be hard to find what you want on some of those schematic lists. I found it so quickly by using the "find on this page" command on IE's drop down Edit menu to find "6G14". Wala!
