Parts List for blackfacing a twin?
« on: August 01, 2011, 01:59:04 pm »
Hey folks
my brother in law is coming over on Wednesday but only for a day, He's bringing his 70's silverface twin which he wants me to blackface,
I am gonna drive to the city tomorow and pick up a few bits for it, i appreciate its a bit of an ask but i am wondering if anyone knows a ballpark selection of components to pick up so i wont be stuck - as i know every amp is different and can require a different resistor on the bias pot to get her in the right range - as i am paying over the odds for parts (in store prices suck i never usually buy from there but its a short notice favour and its not like i do it for a living so i dont have any real stock per say) i dont want to needlessly get stuff!
Also is the Push pulll MV easy to rip out?
Thanks
Cheers,
Bakerlite

Save the parts.  Try to be neat.  Don't just rip stuff out.  Make notes and include them with the amp.  I just un-Blackfaced a Twin and it was a pain.  Someday someone will want to restore it.
