Attachment:
I recently bought a TR14 amplifier that had been a bit monkeyed with by a previous owner. It works, and sounds great (amazingly clean and loud for its diminutive size), and I'm in the midst of trying to put it back to its proper configuration. The serial number starts with XQ; I understand the X indicates it was built in 1984, does the Q indicate anything, a month perhaps?
Anyway, two things I'm most desperate for:
1) Does anyone have, or know where to find, a schematic for this amp? I have scoured the internet and exhausted all my sources, and those that were suggested to me (including Ric Customer Service, who were very polite but couldn't offer me anything) and have come up empty-handed. Maybe Mr. Hall can suggest a source?
2) This amp had a presumably non-original reverb tank mounted outside the amp's chassis, vertically on the inside side panel. I have managed to relocate it back inside the chassis, but would like to replace it with the proper tank. Can anyone tell me the proper tank? (I have asked Accutronics, and they have no record of supplying tanks for the TR14, though they have a spec for the TR25.)
Not desperate for because it has no bearing on operation, but would be nice to have, is the plastic Rickenbacker logo missing from the grill. I suspect it's probably the same logo that adorned some instrument cases from that era also.
Seriously, I'd never do that; it's plenty loud enough.
