I bought this amp from an Ebay seller. It's a 5f1 with an added tone knob ala 5F2a. It worked fine when purchased but was noisy. I moved the red/yellow ct from being grounded to the chassis with the green yellow, to the ground bus at the 1st filter cap per Rob's instruction. This quieted the amp...
I've been thinking about attempting a 5f1 build for awhile but wasn't sure about it. I knew I wanted MORE POWER from it, so that was another issue. I wouldn't be able to just buy a champ kit and follow the instructions. I got to looking around on ebay and found an amp listed as a modded 5f1 with...

I recieved a Bandit 65 from Guitar Center today. Apparently they don't bother to function test used gear before they list it. Listing said "GREAT" condition, but it was not in operating condition when it arrived. Being in really nice physical condition I thought I'd try to clean up the pots and...
Arrived yesterday evening, filthy dirty, sporting an old crap Japanese speaker of some sort. Smelled like a dirty ashtray, and sounded terrible.
Scrubbed it down with Greased Lightning, and put an 8ohm Texas Heat in it for now. I have a 4ohm EM12 ordered for it from the Eminence custom shop...
