Yes! I need to put it all back together. It is on my bench now and the old PT is still in it and the new one is next to it. The soonest I can ship it is Tuesday next week.
I know I bought a Fender Tube amp!

What are you thinking of getting for it?
Why don't I have an option to PM you?

I need to sell the complete thing. How far are you from Pittsburgh? Depends on if you are able to pick it up? I my even give you a guitar if I don't have to fix this thing. Oh the guy John had a couple extra PTs made. The guy who shipped the stuff out to us and collected the money.

Not worth the long drive. I need to get 500 out of it. I have a local guy that wants it. I don't like him and I will be married to him if he buys it. Check back on the tread and see what is up with the extras. I finish all the work on it I might use it.
No problem sir. I've got too much in to justify that expense.
I have the parts on hand to build an 18watt Baby Will in to it.
I have enough EL84 amps though....maybe I'll find a good 6V6 project for it...

I hate to do it. My girl has this thing on the books since she fired my account. Now every thing is under a microscope. If you were here I give you everything and a guitar for the price of the PT but once it goes ups she adds it up. I need to find a girl that did poorly in math this one is a CPA and driving me nuts.

That sucks to the n th power; gut your Silkyn and the new PT will appear magically.
At least it would for me.
Yep. Very likely.
That's why I'm going to take my time shopping projects...
Right now I'm leaning towards old Bassman circuits, or maybe something tweedish. I don't know.
I wanted to get an 2nd PT, but was told that there are no more extras?
OP
The extras are gone? There are three Silkyns for sale on Reverb and it is only a matter of time before they go pop goes the Transformer. Tia has a generic unit in her amp. I see nothing on it such as numbers, name or any clue to tell me what it is. The guys in Texas had two out of 11 or more. I know they bought 10 back when we did. They picked up a couple after. They told me the name of the guy that fixed then. I call and I can barely understand every other word. I get no where will hip.
I don't like going back to the MLP thread either...every time I go now, my mobile browser gets jacked after a short time...frustrating...gotta delete history and reboot...wow that's kinda prophetic really...
OP
At this point in time I have found nothing and no one is willing to help me. I will leave my hook in the water. I will tell you of any thing good and I will verify it before I bring it to you.
OP
I never signed in and I never will. I just looked at what was said of me and I was surprised at a couple guys turning out as they did. I expected most of the stuff tossed at me. I really was surprised at the one guy that was in my corner. Never know, just never knows. I don't miss it since it became a beauty contest a couple years back.

I found Bud Purvine's email from the MLP thread. hpurvine@gmail.com. My understanding is that there were 23 or so spoken for & 4-5 extras were being built. Email him & see. Good luck guys. Wow Don, I would have such a range of emotions over that deal. I sure do hope it turns up for you.
I just dug back in the thread, & here's the last message from John on the transformer situation on August 1st..
"Jimi,
Ack! Soooo sorry your address was left off my spreadsheet as Paid In Full!
I have forwarded it on again to Bud, with payment confirmation.
I am right in the middle of the move, and have zero personal access to internet/ email.
Have to steal work bandwidth for this, so keeping it short.
There are (2) units left, and when I get back to full connectivity, I will get one assigned to you, Wavmixer.
Should be a week or less. My kids going crazy with no internet. Glad to hear some PTs are arriving./
Be safe all,
John"
