Remember the Alamo

5/26/2000 3:04 PM
TC	Remember the Alamo I'm woking on a freinds old Alamo "Electra"amp that he found in a pawnshop. Does anyone have a schematic? It has very low output. Someone has already been in and they appear to have done some strange stuff to it. For one thing the first preamp (not the vibrato tube) 12ax7 has the plates and grids soldered together, and there is no B+ voltage going to this tube. I've never seen anything like this, I am missing something or is this just screwed up as I suspect? Thanks, TC
