Hey y'all!

Is there any difference between the old 70's Hiwatt tolex and the new type that everyone stocks (including Hiwatt itself)?

Superb work

A few years ago I let a tech recap my DR103 and perform general service etc. In the process he suggested that he should install an adjustable bias circuit and remove what he claimed was an aftermarket slave output/input circuit. I didn't think anything of it at the time but I recently opened it up o...

Thx!
