Fender Twin Reverb Amp - Repair, Recap and Restore

Retro Tech & Electronics via YouTube

Overview

Continue the repair, recapping, and restoration process of a Fender Twin Reverb amplifier in this second part of a two-part video tutorial. Observe the functioning standby and complete tube installation after addressing the short from the previous video. Connect a test speaker for initial evaluation, noting the need for potentiometer maintenance. Apply Deoxit to improve potentiometer performance, then proceed with voltage annotation and necessary corrections to bring the amplifier within specifications. Monitor output tube current deviation across all four tubes. Test amplifier functions, including those requiring a shorting plug in place of a foot pedal. Conclude by reinstalling the chassis and conducting a final operational test. Note that the bias for 6V6 tubes is incorrectly shown as 35mA instead of the correct 25mA in this video.
