Hi, sent you an email, hoping this is still available.

I have a copy of this schematic I'll be happy to send along.PM me with your address, and I'll get it out to you gratis.

Almost forgot, I believe the other speaker jack is used to drive an external cabinet.

Hi Chuck, the control near the transformer is an internal sensitivity control. I've never used it, but I'm assuming it operates independently of the Master/sensitivity pot on the rear of the chassis. ...

This amp originally came with a 4ohm JBL M31, so an E130-4 will work just fine. I have a hybrid, and they are great amps despite their age. Mine was built in 1975 and is still going strong. It's inter ...

I have two Emmons P/P's, one a '76 D12 8/5, and a later D10, 10/10. I use an early FET-500,(I have two) and a hybrid 300. For high volume gigs, the 500 does the trick. Clean and clear. For situation ...

The three-cable hook-up for connecting the volume pedal is nothing new, and was not invented by Peavey, Jim Evans offered this feature on the Hybrid 300's back in the 70's, as anyone who either owns, ...

I have a Martin D-28, two vintage dobros,and a Gretsch 6120 DSV with dynasonic single coils that'll let you board the Mystery train any old time.

The D-130F has a four inch voice coil as well, as does the M,K,and E series 15" speakers. I believe JBL has a number code on the original cones, thugh I'm not sure hoe it's deciphered.

i believe Leon Rhodes said Clay Allen of Dallas helped work up the arrangement for the steel guitar rag, and others. JL
