Here is my contribution- Monkey in the Jungle (or is it?) I played intro and outro drums on my kit Main guitars played on tele through Amplitube 4 and Bias FX Guitar harmony solo in left channel played on Fender Strat with Floyd Rose Fender P bass straight into interface, three tracks, added compression, Eq and distortion Vocals are two tracks, track one has chorus and track two has distortion added Main drums (minus the intro and outro) are EZ drums played on a keyboard. Various keys and percussions added for colour The whole mess was tidied up with T racks and Ableton mix/master tools Lyrics : I`m a monkey in the jungle feeling great Panda , turtle and parrots are my friends Climbing trees and picking fights are dares When I`m bored I eat drink f*** and rest Living in the jungle is my fate Breading is my primary quest It`s something I`ve been at my best It`s a never-ending circle and my praise I`m a leader of the pack that keeps me sane Everyone that knows me think I`m vain Most of you think I`m a bit too lame It`s not for real it`s just a game

,😁I only started mixing

So... The fuse arrived, installed the new fuse recording the board with phone so I can trace the potential spark ...Well. The amp works and is loud as flip. The fan is quiet now after I cleaned it. Thanks all who advised. @Dad3353. lesson learnt.." don't meddle with things you don't understand" ..

I already checked , Mouser out of stock Darnell , with delivery the price is nearly 3x higher. Ebay

Two faults I may or likely have done are. 1. After cleaning the fan , I didn't assemble the heatsink and fan using the screws that keep them isolated from the chassis, hence the spark... 2. The speaker wasn't connect to amp, it should have had a load no lower than 8 ohms. Still waiting for fuses to re test, now everything connected as it should so fingers cross.

If anyone reads this thread, where are the places to get spare electronic parts, capacitors, PCB etc. E bay takes a long time...thanks

Thanks, I've been pretty much watching You Tube videos this afternoon on replacing TDA93V or the whole power module. They're suggesting the same as you. The only thing I can't see is any discoloration of the soldering joint suggesting that the IC has had it. I try the fuse first, then the whole power module. The only confusion is that the spark was from underneath the yellow capacitor 100 nj63. I ordered 20 fuses so I have a "play" tomorrow. I had the amp less than a week 😁

Thinking whether I caused a short circuit with a switch cleaner and will be ok once dried out evaporated? The part that sparked is the yellow thing in second pic. It doesn't look discoloured.

I recently bought a second hand Marshall MG100DFX. The fan was a bit too loud so I cleaned it out. The fan and the cooling unit were dusty. For a good measure I sprayed a bit of switch cleaner in the fan and all the potentiometers. I plugged the amp in to test if the fan would be quite. I forgot to plug in the speaker. As I switched it on , there was a piping sound and a small flash next to the cooling unit. The amp doesn't work. The T1.6AL fuse on the pcb is blown. I read that replacing the fuse and trying again may cause further damage , so a bit reluctant to replace the fuse. Anyone can suggest what the issue may be or is it money down the drain?

Thanks all, Iooks like lots of research ahead of building

Surely if I know the speakers came from a 2x12 TC bass cab, I can use the cabinet specs to build it?

This seems pretty heavy going, but is there a way of working out the dimensions of the cab if I know what speakers I'm using?

Hi. Unfortunately that means nothing to me sorry, as I said the technical figures no comprendo. Don't know what T/S is without Googleing😁 but perhaps you could educate me

I don't gig but this will take up your whole day.

Thanks, that what I was after as Steve Harris uses sealed Marshall cabinets with EV speakers.

I'm planning to build a 2x 12 bass cab. I've got a delimma , sealed bass cab or ported. I found some information that ported gives better frequency response and sealed may sound muddy but have more low end. I thought ported cabs give more low end. I've got a Fender rumble 100 and it's ported and the bottom end is deep, but with a 15 inch speaker. I'm looking for an overall solution maybe geared towards mid frequencies? I'm not into technical frequency graph response charts as they mean nothing to me. The question is sealed or ported? Any suggestions please?

Don't know what's worse, the music or the fight

I bought Hotone Thunder Bass mini 5w amp from Paul. Great Comms, fast delivery and through packaging. Thanks

It depends what you want from the sound. I fitted Matt Freeman signature bass with Seymour Duncan Steve Harris Sig pickups. They made the bass sound, well like close to Steve's tone, so I put back the stock pickups.

I did not click on the link, but if he plays what's in the link picture, I would not call it a bass.

I'd buy Oasis catalogue, 99 pence

Has anyone mentioned Tom Araya?

Does this amp makes a pop sound when switched on or off?
