OK,
thanks Enzo, I'll remember that.
I get it, just want it to be tidy and correct.

OK,
So, I got my new reverb tank from MOJOTONE. 4AB2CIB, so that's correct except for the tank mounts with the cavity down rather then up.
Hooked it up and it works great. I just used regular RCA cables from a stereo.
As I said, it works but I am wondering if there is a preferred way to do this. My amp didn't come with the tank or cables so I'm wondering what is correct.
Coax cable?
I would like to have 90 degree plugs and build the cables myself or find something that fits pretty well. Any suggestions ?
thanks,

Hello All,
Do you guys think this speaker would be worth a recone? The cone is stuck solid so maybe just junk
This, as far as I know, came out of a series I G100 yamaha
I just picked up a series II G100-115 and rediscovered this speaker in my to go pile.
thought I would just ask your opinion on the subject before I throw it away.
thanks

Right,
So, open side down but the rest will be the same.

Thanks to all you guys.
I appreciate it.

Awesome!
So I need to grab the 4AB2C1A.
anyone recommend a brand ?
anything to avoid?

been looking around the web and not coming up with the 4AB2C1A
is this unobtainable?
anything  else that will work?
how about the 4AB2C1B ?

It's a long bag, 20 inches.

Here you go and thanks,

Enzo, Got your response this AM did not have  time to go over the schematic very well and I have to say I don't have a good grasp of how the whole schematic thing works. That said the component values were different which I expect means its a different circuit.

I got on chat with Yamaha parts department, The guy did not know what a reverb tank was although his language made me think he's an Aussie. Do they call it something else?
anyhow he said the Accutronics number is 1EB2C1A.
I was not too sure he understood so I clarified that it was a G100-115 series 2. He replied that that was correct.
Does that seem plausible?

thanks

Hello all
just scored a G100-115 series two
does anyone know what reverb tank It should have ?
the bag is still there but no tank.


Anybody own one of these ? If so could you take a look at your tank for me.
I found the service manual for the series 1 which called out the tank as an Accutronics 4AB2C1A
I also found the service manual for the series II which did not call out the tank. I thought maybe the Yamaha part numbers would match but they don't.
I called our local tech today and he said he thought that the tanks would be the same but he was not 100% sure.
any of this ringing a bell for anyone

thanks,

WOW!

Lots of great ideas to try.
I can see this turning into a "free time" consuming illness.

Thanks to EVERYONE.

Now, where did I stash that breadboard?
#13
OK
I think I have a breadboard laying around somewhere. That seems like a good way to go about it.
Anyone have a supplier in mind for components?
I need to do some research on the PCB thing.
Low cost is where I am at and I kinda like to do as much as I can myself.
That said, I don't want to take forever doing the project.
Anyone know of a good tutorial?

So I am looking at the General Guitar Gadgets kit for the Blues Breaker.
I saw a video on youtube with a guy playing one through a Fender Frontman 25R sounded pretty good
Looks like a fun project
Do you have any suggestions as far as buying a kit?
The best bang for the buck kinda thing.
thanks,

Kind of what I was thinking.
the problem is that my neighbors  are a little close for 100 Watts...
You know, now that I think about it, Their not really "good" neighbors.
hmmm...

"Just let the Yamaha be a Yamaha"
That's very zen...
