Hi Andy
That sound good although (naive here) you'll have to let me know what beer tokens are (I'm a cider drinker).
Yes, it will have solid state rectification and I agree on the cathode cap too. I have a mod for the tremelo circuit as I beleive that it never worked properly as it had a mistake in the original circuit design.
I understand what you mean re building Fender Champ style amps - I have a Matamp Little Rock (2 x ECC83, 1 x 6V6GTA - this is a little too clean but very, very loud), Marshall Class 5 (one of the first combos with the rattle - I think its about serial no 105!), Marshall DSL201 and my 67 Bronco (Vibro Champ - it was fun getting this up and running). I just thought that the 10 watt Marshall combo, is probably the smallest 'Blues Breaker' type amp to build and a little unusual too. I am in time going to have a crack at the original Fender Deluxe tweed 5E3 circuit.
I do these in between radio restorations.
Regards
Rob
