Re: Rickenbacker M and B series amps

I love these amps! They are so under rated. Too bad there are so few of them about.
My favorite are the 1950's M-11 with a single jensen and two 6V6 power tubes.
I have two of them so I can play my Ricky guitar in stereo!

Re: My 4008 shrunk !

It's a Ricky electric mandolin!
These are still worth about 1,500 bucks
because there are so few of them out there...

Re: My M-8...

I love these little M-8's. The M-8e in silver orange peel are the best ones.
The speaker baffle is loose and designed to act with the 8 " speaker.
It's a one knob wonder and eats Fender champs for breakfast
when cranked.

Re: M12 Amp

Late 1960's. Cool amp that has schematics available. Worth fixing.
It's best not to recover if you can live with it. I found that silver
paint from Michaels will touch up the wood showing through.
These were usually a single 12 Jensen. You scored a good one.

Re: Which Fender amp for the Beatles/Byrds sound?

VOX AC -15 twin is what they used in the studio.
or a
VOX Pacemaker or Cambridge Reverb (tube or SS)
Fenders are too harsh and trebly and do not compress the sound as well as a VOX.
A Rickenbacker M-11 tube amp might do in a pinch...
