Three Deluxe Reverb OTs Measured

[Series_of_Tubes]

Hey all,

I currently have a '67 Deluxe Reverb on the bench, so I decided to take some measurements of the output transformer and compare with two modern replacements.  The Marvel Electronics is the standard 'Deluxe Reverb' replacement transformer you get from CE Distribution/Antique Electronics.  It is wound on a plastic bobbin.  The other two are paper layer wound.  Here you go...
