Don’t know if anyone cares though.
Anyway, I wanted to tel 1bassleft that after this long period my bandmaster is ok again, even if sonn I’ll have to change the capacitors because they’re still original (I’m talking about 41 years old).
The problem was a resistor gone mad, and being that resistor part of the vibrato thing, it affercted the bias circuit as well. Or something like this.
Anyway, it works now.
BUT, I’ve got a couple of questions.
1) how do you wire 4/5 lightbulbs in series???
this I’m asking because I’ve got an old electric organ, and my tech (yes I’ve got one now) told me that switching it on now, after many years, could mess up the capacitors, and to avoid all the tension going into the organ he suggested me to put some bulbs before the organ’s power cable, linked in series, wait a bit, take a bulb off and wait, and so one; doing this the tension should go up gradually or at least in steps and allow the caps to charge better, on the mans opinion.
2) ouch, I don’t remember the other question now… will do some day.
Thanks for help!!!
