Hi,

The Transformer Fairy is a strange and mysterious creature.

The way it works is, late in the evening there will be a knock on the workshop door. The sound will carry musically through the air as if the door was the top of a pre war Martin.

She will be standing outside with her long red curls and behind her there will be two leprechauns carrying a box.

You give the leprechauns the price of a few pints and off they go, while she follows you back into the workshop.

The next morning all that I can remember seems confused and dreamlike.

Just the box and the faint scent of her perfume are left to reassure me that I didn't imagine the magical visit.

That's all I have to say on the subject of how these transformers came to me.

I do have a clear flash of memory from that night where, as I was filling her glass with Jamesons she smiled and said "Well, sure maybe you could use them for something else?"

Like I say, a strange and mysterious creature...

This set is perfectly formed but small. 300 volts and just 110ma.

AC15 sort of size. 7K OPT

Take care..

John

Really...perfect for that. If you don't use the tremolo, build the TMB version with gives 2 preamp channels. Curiously, on the TMB I built, I hardly ever use the TMB channel. I've got a strong preference for the other one with a single tone knob.

Quite the find!

Hi,

The chassis they are bolted to has been attacked by The Mad Drill Man and so I have five noval sockets and this control setup without drilling any new holes.

An amp that doubles as a racoon trap. Useful.
