CHAMP ELECTRONICS -" THE VINTAGE VALVE AMP HOSPITAL"
NOTTINGHAM, ENGLAND
REPAIR OF AN AMPEG REVERBEROCKET COMBO AMPLIFIER
Also belonging to the same customer Pete who owns the
Mercury M12 combo, but brought in at a different time, this Reverberocket was
also suffering from sounding pretty rough…….a condition which came on
suddenly!
This model uses a pair of 7591A tubes for the output, and
6U10 triple-triodes for the front-end. Earlier versions used 6SN7 and 6SL7
tubes, whereas some of the later ones reverted to the more conventional ECC83/12AX7's.
Pete loves his Celestion Vintage 30's in his amps. I believe he still has the original drivers though.
Another classic old amp!
And this one turned out to have a duff output
transformer too. It has been re-wound and re-fitted here.
