  • Hey all!!! I am still here - just been cranking through a lot of repairs. It's good to be back with another video :)
    In this video, I take on:
    -electrolytic capacitor replacement
    -noisy preamp plate resistors
    -tremolo repair
    -and more! To find the perfect balance between reliability and originality.

      Agreed, the opening history was really well done and added a lot to the story. Very concise yet complete treatment of the amp work. However, I think a short example of pot and jack cleaning should be in every repair/renovation video. Cheers!

    it warms my heart to see the younger generation get into component-level electronics. i was hooked back in the 70's when i got one of those radio shack project kits with the spring terminal connectors. there's nothing like soldering parts together into a project and seeing it work.

  • @markburnham7512
    @markburnham7512 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I never knew what a Concert was until I heard Dave Alvin use one back in the 90s. What blew me away was how he did the entire show using his Strat, a cable, and the Concert, and nothing else. No pedals whatsoever. And so many tones, all with the basic setup. Remarkable. I've only seen a handful of players do it with zero pedals, and this was one of the best.

    I like your work. Your videos are awesome also. No messing around, no crappy music "montage" (the word makes me cringe", speed up with frame cuts, so no chipmunk sounds. just the business, the stuff needed to be seen. Excellent work.

  • @MrSparks54

    I bought a brown concert off of CL. Sounded amazing. Incredible vibrato... Sadly, the next day the police called to tell me it was stolen. The thief who sold it to me never paid me back. I sued him in small claims court and won. In trying to reclaim my money, I dug into his past and turned out he may have made a guy murder this woman at gunpoint several years before (that was the claim of the guy who went to prison for the murder) and he was a two-time felon, so I decided to cut my losses. Miss that amp.
    On the good side, the amp belonged to a very well known local musician and we've since developed a friendship. So, not a complete loss.

    • @abubakr6939
      @abubakr6939 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      A bit strange that the cops call you the next day over a stolen amp, there’s many stolen things out there and they usually don’t even bother investigating.
      One more reason to not use your real phone number on CL or Kijiji or whatever.

    • @petedavis7970
      @petedavis7970 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@abubakr6939 Not so much. I live in a relatively small city. The kind where you frequently run into people you know. The guy who owned the amp is a minor celebrity in the area. He recognized the amp on CL and called the cops. The cops surely know who he is. They went to the guy who sold it to me, who then gave them my # and they called me.

    • @abubakr6939
