I have a couple ‘back-of-the-napkin’ schematics for Jansen 7-25’s. One of them had reverb plus trem and one just had tremolo it seems. Maybe head vs combo versions like Jay says.

Well, if you ever trip over an original 7-25, for sale, let me know please.

Got me eye on that but so have a few other die hards...

Sadly rocking up too quickly in price for a unit that hasn't been switched on for years.
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

That switch would work if you pushed it with a screwdriver.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...
