Bogen CHB50--first project?

[Phil_S]

It should be good for any single channel build, 3 preamp tubes, 2 power tubes. There is no 5V filament supply, so no tube rectifier. Besides, it is using a solid state doubler to get the plate voltage up at the 6L6's. I think you are getting great guitar amp iron for silly cheap. You can drill out the rivets and recycle the tube sockets. There may be other good salvage, like a fuse holder and pots. It takes care a patience to strip out the good parts, but you can save a few dollars.
