I hope you are/had a good Thanks Giving Paul. Just remember you have a huge family here. I for one am thankful for all the work you do on this channel.
Thank you! Much appreciated
Nobody used pencil irons to solder back when that amp was made. Get yourself a big beefy iron that can maintain it's heat better. They work great for soldering the backs of potentiometers too.
Nice change of pace Paul! Looking forward to seeing you get the Gibson to sing again! Thanks for the consistent stream of interesting stuff. - jrh
its not just older equipment i often run into difficulty getting commercial made electronics solder to flow when working on pre made circuits
No shopping other than drain cleaner. Yep, drain still backed up 🤯
Volume pot=probably bent axle (or whatever the word is).
You might want to lightly spray the speaker with pure silicone to help it stay flexible.
Paul heat the connection with the hot air gun first, And use extra flux
Are you going to renumber the knobs so they go to 11?
Happy Thanksgiving to you Paul grate video.
Happy holidays!
Is there a website that we can buy schematics from? I've got a TV that has a bad power supply. There are 4 blown smd resistors and they are burnt so bad that I can't tell what the rating is.
Happy post-Thanksgiving to ya, bro!!
It's been a few years since I last watched any of your videos - I don't know what had happened/I had done, but I [for whatever reason] wasn't getting the notifications for your videos, but it should be fixed now. Anyways, I wanted to pop in and see how you've been (IIRC, both our mothers passed around the same timeframe)...?
I hope all is well, & look forward to watching more videos from you [again]!! 😃
Take care 👍👍
Welcome back!
@@learnelectronicsthanks! Can you tell me what kind of probes it is that you use that have the clip hooks on them? I'm looking to get a pair.
Thanks.

@@learnelectronics - Thanks for letting me know what kind of probes they are. My mother-in-law asked what I wanted for Christmas, & now I own my OWN pair of Probe Master probes 😀
I love that they feel GREAT in the hands, and aren't all stiff like other probes that you get with meters. They go great with the new meter I picked up (the Kaiweets KM601S)!
THANKS AGAIN BROTHA!! 🤘🤘
