Title: 5150 circuit Post by: nobozos on July 01, 2009, 04:35:28 PM Hi Ceriatone guys.
I have a suggestion. I have always been troubled by the internal construction of my 5150 Combo. Specifically, the PCB mounted pots and tube sockets. I would be interested in seeing a 5150 kit that is a hand-wired version, as opposed to the PCB original, with chassis mounted tube sockets and pots. Is this do-able? Thanks.

I haven't looked into a 5150 schematic specifically, but some...say...like a Bogner Ectasy would be nearly impossible, and cost prohibitive, to make a hand wired version of. Most high gain amp offerings I see clones of a single channel and often are streamlined even more to make it a little easier on the builders.
