Ampeg V4B bias mod



A bit of a test post really - trying out the photo upload.

This is the inside of a Ampeg V4B that had burned out the screen resistors. The pic shows a mod done I found in there done by a previous tech. Stock V series amps derive the bias from the B+ supply. The transformer next to the power tubes was added across the heater supply to kludge an independent bias supply winding in the power supply.
