That's awesome to hear, thanks!

Ah! Got it, thanks.

Thanks, I will! That is their 100w JCM800 model. Any comment on Hammond vs Heyboar OTs and/or this JCM800 OT vs a hiwatt (dr103?) OT?

This is what you are considering? https://www.mojotone.com/Hiwatt-100-Watt-Output-Transformer It says it is USA made, could be Heyboer, who make many of Mojo's transformers. At $170, it's probably the best option for you. I see the primary impedance is only 1k8, though, where 2k2 would be better, I...

(Of course, I am very much open to other <=200$ options!)

Allow me to reframe: I am building an orange or120 clone and would like to purchase a replacement output transformer; I have up to 200$ to spend. I would like to play my amp at "11." To my understanding, primaries (and secondary impedances) for Orange, Marshall, and Hiwatt 100 watt amps are similar ...

Hi! I am about to embark on building a Weber 6o100 kit, which is an Orange OR120 clone. I would like to purchase a replacement output transformer for it, just to compare with the stock MIC transformer (wot100) provided with the kit, but am unsure what to get. I'm not looking to spend "ToneClone" mon...
