SANO accordian amp for dumblelite

Post by BobW »

I picked this up at a pawnshop for next to nothing. The amp didn't work, but The PT and OT tested good, and have started gutting it for a dumble lite version w/ controls on the top. Being the cheap SOB that I am, I started making the boards out of scrap basswood. $30 - amp, new chassis and parts - $120 = $150, so far. Should be a cool looking and sounding amp when finished.

It's 85% complete. All that's missing are the shielded cables, bias resistor, and the front panel label. The pots are top cover loaded to fit the enclosure. I hope to be adjusting the tone by Friday. Believe it or not my tech work used to look a lot neater, guess I rushed it. :oops:

No wooden circuit boards though....they look like fiberglass or garolite. ?
