6g2 build: 290PAZ ok?
« on: November 17, 2020, 11:54:06 am »
I have a Hammond 290PAZ lying around and was thinking of using it in a 6g2 clone. It’s got a 290-0-290 secondary. It’s also got more power than I need, but does anyone see any issues with using this tranny? Thanks!

I would use it.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!
