Quick info.. Just joined, first post. I am capable, but not all knowing, inside a tube amp. I'm still learning a lot of the terms and forget them pretty quickly so ignore my ignorance. I have built a mojotone 5e3 tweed deluxe clone with success, and troubleshot and changed components in a couple vintage Fenders I own. This includes a couple of Bassmans, a vibrolux reverb, and a champ. This is my first Marshall to tinker with.
What it is... I purchased a busted (fried board) DSL100H with reverb but no "R". It is the version with the chassis mounted power tubes. All the replacement boards I have found online are for a different version with pcb mounted power tubes. My board is stamped DSL 100-60-00. I have contacted Marshall service but don't plan on much help as I am not the original owner, but maybe they could sell me the board. If anyone has a source for my board I am all ears.
Another option... Build a vintage spec turret board of a classic Marshall using the chassis, transformers, cab, etc of the dsl. What would be the most correct/best sounding circuit to fit the transformers from the DSL? (assuming they are good, I have to figure that out also). Any major roadblocks I may not be thinking of trying to go this route?
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
