Thanks for the info. Have previosly done a PR in a head and apart from head height you need to have tank ouput as far away as possible from PT. Else loads of hum.

The 68 Custom Deluxe Reverb I had had huge reverb hum. I read online "spin the spring tank around 180 degrees" - was a simple procedure so I did it and it mostly fixed the hum. Still gobsmacked at how Fender could let that slip thru to full production.

That was actually a REALLY good sounding amp.

By the way, I am planning to put a Celestion Creamback 65 in the Marshall CX cab for this amp - at least until I can afford a custom built matching cab from BG. Maybe a vertical 2x12 in Fender blackface style - that'll turn heads

HOw on earthwould you trouble shoot that one - it looks to be so busy!!!

It does look busy I agree and the DR chassis is smaller than (say) a Vibroverb chassis which enhances the busy look. But it's actually much easier to troubleshoot than some "neater" looking boards (e.g. Tweed Deluxe 5E3) because there are no jumpers hidden under the board. Of course you also need fabulous skill and a circuit diagram

Deluxe reverb?! Id trade you at least a DRRI AND a capo for him!

Printed Circuit Board? Pfffffffft.

Oh lookee here....

Contain my excite - I dare thee.

Looking forward to seeing MikeC's wonderful build inside this beautiful shell. Lifetime amp purchase for me, for sure. Handbuilt for me by my NZG brothers #TeamNZG <3

Merry Christmas

Literally just finished, I made you a lovely combo cab first.... misread clear instructions lol.

So if you fancy a cheap combo cab to go with it... give me a shout I'd even tolexed it.

Can you convert it into a 1x12 speaker cab? I am, as it just so happens, dithering about what I'm going to plug the head into.

Gosh, where is this going / is this fate. Build it and he will come? (JB, that doesn't mean what you want it to mean).

As long as you don't mind a large front port where the amp face would sit

Yeah, that would look (and more importantly sound) odd :/ Ah well.
