Rivera Era Twin Reverb II

Post by tcdiesel52 »

Hello everyone, I have an 1983 Fender Twin Reverb II. I am looking for the wiring schematic. The ones that come up on fender amp schematic heaven, show the Concert amp which has 2 6l6s , but is labeled the twin reverb 2. The Rivera Twin has 4 6l6s If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be very helpful thank you.

Thats not the one. Unless im reading it wrong which is highly likely, but theres only 2 6l6s shown in that schematic.

This looks great ! I would say this is the closest thing ive seen without actually doing all the work. Im just trying to verify some values, and Im having an issue with the gain stage not working. It sounds like the gain channel has signal coming through but only at a very low volume, and its also intermittently quits working completely. Im suspecting one of the vactrols, but im not sure. Im currently replacing the tube sockets.

Look again. There are four 6L6s on that schematic.

highly likely that i was wrong is correct then. Thank you for helping me understand. Apparently I need to learn to look a little closer. I'm still learning at this....
