I know, here we go again with ric's twin reverb. But once again I need your professional input. I finally found a ol' timer tv repair man who is quite knowlegeable about octupulors ldr's, thats what I had intended to do, when all else failed, so I bought the part, cool, but when I took out the chassis, I almost fainted! It had looked like some one at some time "removed some parts from the board! godzilla with a soldering gun! especially the ldr! Why? I ask myself. along with that the rca jack for the tremelo. The wires look like they were litterally "riped" out! OH MY ACHING B....S! I have a schematic, but is the any photo up close of a twin chassis? so this old guy wont freak on me.? Its my last chance, I will never be able to sell it for what it is worth, unless this is remedied.. ALL life should be so simple with a dying son in the hospital also!!! THANX AGAIN GUYS!!!!! RIC

I'm very sorry to hear about your son. As a father and grandfather, I can imagine just how heart-breaking that must be. I feel kind of thoughtless and hollow to talk about amps. Just get the guy a layout of an AA270 or the 100watt Twin Reverb. They are available from Fender. The layout is better than a photo. Art

Hey Chrome, I can dig the photos. Can you get any of the chassis's interior? Art

Good point.

Chrome - are these your amps, or are you just posting Googled photos of amps in every post? I seem to see a pattern - not judging, but noticing.

You're right! These pictures came from various sources, including Google.

Unfortunately, I didn't own these babies, even I was a huge fan of the silverface amps since my early childhood. I really like to have a silverface head with a pair of matching cabs in my arsenal. But these amps are very expensive and hard to find.

Love to see them as well, but I'd ask in the future to attribute where the images are from, even if it's "quick google search turned up these. "
