ioginy Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hey all. I picked up a '58 GA20-T a little while ago and have adored it every second I play it. Sadly I play it in my basement for the most part. I just did my first show with it on the weekend and had to crank it because the sound system at the venue was on the fritz. Not a huge deal, but I really didn't want the dimed distortion going all the time. This got me to thinking that it might not be a bad idea to set it up with a external speaker jack. I took a look inside and noticed that the speaker has it's own output transformer. I don't know a whole lot about the in's and out's of electronics, but I do know that the output transformer directly effects ohm rating. I've done a lot of small repairs on guitars and amps, so i have a pretty good handle on soldering. I was just wondering if there was a safe way to install an external speaker jack. Also, would it be wise to build a powered cabinet so i could control the volume independently on the cab without having to adjust the Amp volume away from its sweet spot. Sorry if I rambled on a bit there Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioginy Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Quick edit.... Scratch the powered cab idea. It just occurred to me that the power circuit of the amp would be void then... and no one wants that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
