In this video two amps will be inspected, repaired, and tested: a mint 1961 Brownface Fender Princeton and an equally nice Silverface Champ. Several different problems are encountered, including the all-too-common scorching hot bias of the Champ's 6V6 and a weak tremolo in the Princeton. Hopefully, the repair methods will be instructive.
Working on old, classic amps like these always presents an ethical dilemma: do we preserve originality at the expense of safety, proper function, and reliability......or do safety and functionality justify the replacement of original components? I guess it all boils down to whether you want a pristine display piece......or an amplifier that functions like new, for a reasonably long time. Only the owner can decide.
