Rock Master
I recently aquired a Peavey "Rock Master" real cheap.  
 
Ofcourse it doesn't work (you get what you pay for).  
 
I seem to be having some difficulty finding a schematic  
 
for this thing. Does anyone have any hints on where to  
 
look? The Peavey web site was not much help.  
 
 
 
thanks

Hi, Wink. If noone here can email you a schematic, the folks at Peavey seem pretty eager to sell their schematics. While ordering some transistors for a CS-400, I asked for a 5150 schematic, which they gladly sold for $5. Not free, but not too expensive either.

The Rockmaster isn't a terrible little preamp, either. I need to see about getting some schems for mine. Mine has some squirreliness in that sometimes its real weak sounding. I replaced tubes a while back and thought it was fixed, but it still does it sometimes...

I'll call Peavey and see if I can get it from them.  
 
BTW, you mentioned "little preamp". There was apparently 2  
 
Rock Masters. The one I have is a 100 watt head. 3 12ax7s  
 
and 4 6L6GCs. They also made a preamp called a Rock Master.

The biggest problem with the Rockmaster preamp  
 
is the jacks in the back used for patching the  
 
unit in to other effects.  
 
Usually a burnishing tool and a little reshaping  
 
of the contacts on these effects loops jacks  
 
will get rid of intermittant level and gain drops.
