[QUOTE="El Sid, post: 841637, member: 18550"] Aargh not good news. I took off the mid/treble OPT - looked pretty fried, measured it - short on the secondary. So I'm going to try find a new one (?) or see if someone can rewind it. Failing that, is there likely to be anything that may work, such as those line transformers for PA/restaurant type speakers, or a small single-ended EL84 OPT? Something that works OKish (obviously without causing further damage) would be better than nothing at all. Sadly I can't find any specs on the transformer. If I can't sort out the transformer then there's no point in continuing the electrical restoration and I'll do the cosmetics only. Dead OPT: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/7ZgM25s.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
