GlennW	Re: Schematic/suggestions for a Silvertone 1422 aka 40XL Hi Kenny, and thanks for looking. I just realized that I made a terrible mistake - it's a "Sears" amp, not a Silvertone. I knew that, but it slipped my mind when I posted before. Other than Harmony Central and ebay there isn't much to be found about these things. This is a tube version...6x4, (2)7189, (3)12AX7. There's also a later solid state version, which I've seen in black instead of green. It's a 1x12 combo with the 4 ohm Fisher speaker that some of the 60's Silvertone 1x12 combos have.

Two channels with tone and volume, and reverb and tremolo for Ch 2.

Hi Kenny, and thanks for looking.

I just realized that I made a terrible mistake - it's a "Sears" amp, not a Silvertone. I knew that, but it slipped my mind when I posted before.

Other than Harmony Central and ebay there isn't much to be found about these things.

This is a tube version...6x4, (2)7189, (3)12AX7.

There's also a later solid state version, which I've seen in black instead of green.

It's a 1x12 combo with the 4 ohm Fisher speaker that some of the 60's Silvertone 1x12 combos have.
