Parts source?

Post by Funkalicousgroove »

Does anyone know where to get the Phenolic Perf Board that Ken Used?

Spade clips?

What Brand are the on/off and Stand by switches in the Komet?

Hello,

Unfortunately, I can't help you with the board and terminals but I can tell you that when I took my Komet 60 apart it had NKK (model S332) on/off and standby switches. The mouser part # is 633-S332 and I believe they are $5.90 ea. They are currently on backorder right now.

Well, I didn't chime in on this because you're all in such a hurry to clone Fran :) ... but I'll eventually have new stock of repro perf board (the original stuff is long gone). I reckon it's about a week or two away.

See www.ampmaker.com/pb01x.asp for info.

I contacted him actually, nice fellow! (Or are you he?) I also want the board for my JTM45, so I'm not rushing out to clone Franchesca per-se, but I do detest the measure/drill/stake process, and thought this approach would make construction/experimentation and mods much easier.

Shall do - I'd already specced them at JTM45 and 18W size. But I was amazed to see it used in Francesca. I still wonder how Ken got the stuff - I don't think it made it to the USA? Maybe he chopped up an old JTM45 for it!? :shock: ;)

I don't have a problem with you posting since the perf board is so hard to find and your post isn't blatantly spamming.

Can you offer it custom sizes (ie for the power board)?

I need to check on whether Fran's power supply board is a cut-down version of the amp circuit board. The Radio Spares blanks were 21x27 holes, and Marshall then sliced them into 7-row (18W) or 8-hole (45W) strips - plus there was the odd power supply board for the first JTM 100Wers.

Bad news is that I've just heard that my perfed boards are 4 weeks away - like I said, I didn't want to say anything until I had this stuff - in perfect quality - in my hands.

jmac - at the mo, the exchange rate is approx 1:1.7 (pounds to dollars).
