Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: Voltage check

Ok, will check them. Think that the "12AX7" in the amp maybe a 12AT7. Kinda weak tone. Replaced it with an RCA 7025. Put slow-start 5Y3WGT rectifier and TS 6V6GT (USA made). Much better tone. Smoother. Nice OD. OEM speaker has terrible high volume response. Think the VC and/or cone is all dried up. Too fragile, even for 5 watts.

Get back to you later tonight on those DC voltages off the coupling caps.
