Space inside the TOA probably won't be an issue..If need be I can drill holes in the base of the chassis and relocate things. Being from the 70s the circuitry is a lot more simple than today. The board inside the silvertone is the width of the input and controls but it's not very deep.i will put some pics up when I get everything opened up properly.

Before any of my wild ideas with this I had gone back to basics playing around with pickup combos. 2 of my guitars I have played around with have similar direction but their own sound.
Dean MLXF - seymour Duncan dimebucker in the bridge and the original Dean DMT bridge humbucker in the neck position.

No name Les Paul - Bill Lawrence 500xl(neck) in the neck position and a DiMarzio crunch lab in the bridge..

It's those who dare to push it and experiment and come up with a signature sound that others would like to emulate ☺️

These are the 2

Thanks for your input. It is just stuff that I have but it's also stuff that I'm happy to experiment with.meaning if I kill them no biggie.
The silvertone is only a little 15 watt ss thing that is "ok" and I think it may have  potential.
I believe this little amp was marketed under a couple of other brand names too. I will see what info I can dig up.

Hi all.forum noon here.
So I have this crappy little silvertone practice amp that was given to me. I like it for the fact it has O/D, reverb and an input effects loop.so it makes it a good starting point for my project (fingers crossed)
Part 2. I have an old TOA PA amp (1979 built)
It's 180 watt max and it's damn heavy and built properly.

Here's the hope bit.. do away with the pre amp on the PA (pretty much 1 circuit board to remove) do away with the power amp bit of the guitar amp and combine to make my own amp head so to speak.. is this at all possible? I know a decent amount about electronics to get me by.
I'm figuring somehow cutting the amp circuit on the guitar amp and then making this the "pre amp" board in place of the one removed from the PA?
Some pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Some may ask why would I bother? I just recently had knee surgery and I have a lot of time on my hands.
