Simple job today, just re-cap the power supply. Amp was running quiet but now it just sounds better with a stronger low end. It will be mated with a beautiful P-Bass soon and ready to cut phat tracks. You have a studio? It's not a serious studio without a real B15!
Stick o' dynamite cap, 30uf@600v, replace with a C.E. Manufacturing 25uf@800v stick:
Also replace the big can with a C.E. triple 40uf@525 volt can.....
I left the audio circuit alone. I like these green .02 Cornell Dubilier capacitors. They're still good and the amp sounds great! Ampeg in those days didn't skimp on small parts. They are built to last.
My client and I bought this amp from a new shop in Brooklyn called Rock N' Roll Supplies. Great place and they have a great tech working there. Give them a visit! Some mighty nice amps hanging out there and reasonably priced!
