Apocalypse Audio

This Bell and Howell speaker is going to end up a nice little funky amp when I’m done with it. Just deciding whether or not to make it a 10w solid state germanium transistor amp or to go with a 5w tube set up.

Here’s a fun one due for a tune up.

This is the kind of thing that gets me excited. I went to take apart this ancient “Solid State Reverb” in order to replace the old capacitors and hopefully get rid of some noise. I found that the genius Japanese engineer from 50 years ago that designed it decided servicing it a breeze. They left a little work hole on the top of the chassis that perfectly sets out the solder side of the board. No disassembly necessary! Gonna get to work on this guy in the morning, give it a good cleaning, and hopefully clean up the sound a bit as well. Cheers.

Going through the funky k**b collection.

Guts.
