Sears Silvertone 1482

[Riffraff12571]

I've got two and love them both. My first was a dead mint '65. I liked that so much I started looking for another I could do some work on without feeling guilty. I found a '67 local to me the following year. Here are some clips of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKL9Lw0C ... 1EC5A50D01

Riffraff12571 pretty cool video

JazzGuitarGimp Will this be your first build with the copper varistors? Curious how they sound...Thanks Mark!

Yes this will be a first for me, might not even work.

Nice! 1482! I was looking for a circuit to put in the Japanese Ace Tone combo I got. This is perfect. My amp even has a 6au6 for the tremolo already.

Riffraff, what tweaks have you made to your workhorse? Seems like the parallel input triodes are free game: one with 1k5/100k, one with stock 2k2/330k. None of the Rk have any bypass caps. Did you try?

How is the tremolo? Didn't hear it in your clip.
