Progress @shroprockdoctor on the controller interconnect & cable for the Line6 tube head. I have opted to use an 8 pin circular multipole connector with screw collar plug. The cable has been made up from a remnant of 6 twisted pair, screened 24awg Alpha Wire. This was leftover from cable builds for my Rocktron Bradshaw […]

Amp mod @shroprockdoctor. As requested by the customer this Line6 head has undergone a de-brand, having the LED edge lit acrylic logo panel disabled & blanked out with the customer supplied vinyl sheet. #guitarfx #guitar #rackeffects #homerecordingstudio #guitarrepair #caudio #amplifier #bridgnorthbusiness #shropshire #audiorepair #audiorecording #fender #squire #fenderamps #marshallamps #ibanez #Epiphone #gibson #peavey #laney #mesa #hughesandkettner […]

Next up today @shroprockdoctor we have a Line6 Spider HD100 head for a couple of modifications. This Bognor designed 100w amp is a real tube head with an on board DSP. The first modification is to disable the LED illumination to the acrylic front panel & then cover the panel in the supplied material (purely […]

Power socket mod @shroprockdoctor. Picked up another Cyclades PM10 intelligent PDU on ebay for a few quid. I use these in my studio to give either timed incremental start-up to the big racks or selected output via the rs232 software. Cyclades PM10i comes 32A rated with a fixed monster cable & molded 32A commando plug. […]

Cyclades incremental startup @shroprockdoctor. Individual socket times can be applied in software. Very useful too for studios that have a lot of equipment. #guitarfx #guitar #rackeffects #homerecordingstudio #guitarrepair #caudio #amplifier #bridgnorthbusiness #shropshire #audiorepair #audiorecording #fender #squire #fenderamps #marshallamps #ibanez #Epiphone #gibson #peavey #laney #mesa #hughesandkettner #roland #prsamplifiers View this post on Facebook

Final part of the Hughes & Kettner job for Mr Charlton @shroprockdoctor. In addition to the memory battery in his zenTera head I was asked to make up a 10m interconnect cable to join the head to the Zboard controller. This proprietary cable is pretty elusive & pinout information was impossible to find so I […]

Marshall DSL100H in @shroprockdoctor after the owner had changed the valves, I assume he meant power output valves that failed to solve the problem. My investigation began at the front end checking voltages on tubes but all appeared good. Splitting the amp by outputting from the fx loop send proved the issue lay in the […]

Cable build @shroprockdoctor. As requested by the owner of the H&K zenTera modeling amplifier the proprietary interconnect cable to join the head to the H&K Zboard foot controller is almost complete with just the db9 plug insert requiring soldering. After scouring the Internet for information regarding the pinout for this cable & drawing a complete […]

Hughes and Kettner ZenTera 200w stereo modelling head in @shroprockdoctor for a memory battery replacement. Had to install a different format cell to the original but it’s still a Varta Mempack 2.4v 80h rated package. Presets are now retained after a power down. This amp arrived with the H&K Zboard controller which requires the proprietary […]

Marshall DSL100H @shroprockdoctor for repair of an unspecified fault. Powered up via variac the fault presents as a loud hum through the connected speaker. All fuses intact. Owner has apparently installed new valves which as can be seen in the image we’re all incorrectly seated in the bases. Valves are now correctly installed but […]
