Fender - Model 26

[reddead83]

Hello,

I'd like to build a Fender Model 26. I scoured the internet for a layout but couldn't find one so I decided to try and make my own. Would anyone be willing to verify it for me since this is my first layout?

Thank you.

Missing shorting-finger on Inst 1 Inst 2 jacks.

Missing ground on MIC pot.

Is that a jumper 6N7 plates?

I'll assume pale-green is 6VAC CT.

There's a real difference choke or 25K dropper. Will the 6V6es be happy at the much higher G2 voltage?

Thanks PRR, I appreciate the help.

I revised it.

That is a jumper from Pin 6 to Pin 3 of the 6N7.

The pale green is a CT.

Got the idea for the choke from Uncle Doug on Youtube. He recommended it to quiet down the amp. What would you recommend?

Switch terminal on J1 and J2 should be connected to ground just like J3.

Remove jumper between pins 3 and 6 on V2.

Move yellow wire on pin 5 of each 6V6 to pin 6.

Thanks Sluckey. I'm building your Revibe right now. i'll start a thread when I'm done.


I've made the changes. Anything else?

to my ears, that model 26 doesn't sound good at all. it would be interesting to hear clips of yours. good luck with the build.

I guess we’ll see how it sounds. I thought it sounded great despite Doug’s admitted lack of proficiency on the guitar. I’ll get some clips once I’m done. I appreciate all the help.
