This mod will lower the 60 hz hum that the amp makes also. Serviced buy the great Steve Hunter of the Electric. Bottom back left corner has a slight rip in the tolex.

However, the 6V6 ones are easily modded into great amps like a tweed or brown Deluxe. it won't affect anything the amp is likely to do. if you remove it, I see no benefit adding the bead. never mind that the effect would be outside the audio range or some such. Someone rationalizes that such and such effect would be diminished by some mod.
#Fender musicmaster bass amp mods mods
Two 6V6 models and one EL84 model, only the EL84 model sounded any good stock and even then only dimed and with the right floppy speaker. A lot of mods are common, and a lot of those common mods are done for specious reasons. A few light scratching and one ding in the silver face control panel. Re: Fender Musicmaster Bass Amp I once owned three of those. All original, missing Fender speaker decal on magnet. You can do this at any of the tube sockets where its easy to get near a point to solder them to ground.Ī good spot would be at one of the output tubes as they already have there pin 8 going to ground right near by, all you need to do is unground that one wire and solder a resistor from a 6v6s pin 7 to ground at pin 8, and the do the same thing at pin 2. A beautiful 1974 Fender Musicmaster model CFA 7010 bass amplifier. One definite circuit change I would make is to un ground the filament string and then solder on a 100 ohm 1/2 watt resistor to each of the 6.3 volt feed wires ( likely to be green colored) and the ground the other end of each resistor. anybody know anything about these amps- Fender Musicmaster Bass. Its not either of the Transformers, so do not sweat that. I would replace without question all the filters at this point with Ruby brand, F&T ,or blue cased Atom caps and know that at least that's out of the way and the amp will sound better for it! In fact I have filters out of 70s Marshalls, Hiwatts, Fenders and other amps that are leaking out crap and or swelling up at the pressure release plug AND THEY STILL TEST GOOD FOR LOW ESR!!!! so nothing is cut in stone without the meter test! Its actually a pretty terrible bass amp for anything above pri. Unless you have a Cap ESR meter to use in regards to checking the power supply filters / caps, there is no surefire way to know if they are good or not! What do you think Leave a comment and lets chatThis is a late 70s Music Master Bass amp.
