Pickin’ and Grinnin’

Where did you find such a prehistoric artifact?

I had no idea this ancient relic existed. Should be in a museum

Clovis Antiques. On Polasky St.

There are 6 antique and 2nd-hand shops within 3 miles or so. There are lots of old tube equipment for sale.

Check out radiomuseum.org for some fun.

As it turns out this little amplifier is better than I thought.

First off, I had two of the speakers phased backwards, and when I fixed that it definitely made a difference.

The other thing is, one of the pickups on the Schechter wasn’t working because of a balky switch. I put some deoxit in the switch and played with it a while.

When it started working that nearly doubled my output to the amplifier.

It went from a quiet mouse to a real squawker.

This amplifier was running four tiny speakers, the largest pair was about the same size as the 1961 Zenith tweeter.

That was the “woofer” LOL…
