Fender layout drawing confusion

6/22/2000 2:11 AM
Michael Tousek	Fender layout drawing confusion I'm a little stumped, guys. In the Fender layout drawings, there are eyelets that are labelled with the message "to A" or "to B", with "A" and "B" in a little box. These denote common points of the B+ supply that happen to lie on different parts of the circuit board and are, I guess, connected by a wire. My question is: how did Fender route these wires? Do they go under the board? I'm doing the Andy Ruhl AB165/AB164 Bassman thing to my much-abused SF Bassman head, and I'm scratching my head over what is the "right" way to connect these points. Thanks! Michael Tousek
