Ok. So i looked all over for the bolt that wasn't holding the one side of the transformer. i thought maybe years ago it had fallen and gotten lodged under the speaker or something or maybe under the reverb tank. Never could find it so I just went to the hardware store and got the 55 cent piece. I actually bought two to hold both the transformer. I didn't think to solder right to the tube terminals. Thats a way better idea. I doubt I will have enough cable so i'll probably have to splice the blue and brown cables as well. No biggie I suppose. Its a exceptionally clean unit. This is my 4th ampeg by the way. I guess while i'm in there i'm going to convert it to a three prong cable as well.
The one thing i'm a little nervous about is biasing the power tubes. I have never done that. any details or know of a different post that walks one through the biasing of these kinds of amps?
