Selmer Mercury 5

Post by jon »

I've been looking at the Selmer Mercury 5 as a fun project to experiment with magic eye tubes. However, I cannot find any data on the EM88 called out on the schematic. Is it possible that this is a misprint, and it should be an EM84 like the Zodiac?

That sure looks like at cool circut. Probably not far from the Xits 4x. Sould be able to get enough gain with adjustments.

I built a Vox AC4 and it does not have enough gain for me. And sounds too dark.

I have not heard of an EM88. I would try the EM84.

From Gabriel Sound Garage Magik eye tube experiment. Used to display output tube function.

E88, perhaps?
