Hi Members! I'm new here, but not to using Kustoms. I had (still have) my K200 bass amp with 3x15 that I bought new in 1971. I still use it today when I play. Although at 60, it ain't so easy to cart around anymore.....

So, here's my deal. I've been collecting Kustoms for a while. When I bought the ones I have, they all worked. They stayed in a basement for a long time, and now, well, they don't work. Since I'm now disabled I thought I would learn about electronics and possibly repair the units myself. I can read schematics fairly well, and can solder like a banshee, so I am going to try the first one soon.

This one is a PA head, K100B-5. I know for a fact that the transformer is fried. Didn't even have to test it. Plugged it up and heard wonderful bubbling and sparking sounds coming from the transformer. Immediately unplugged it.

So, these transformer puppies aren't so easy to find. At least not through conventional means. I see a lot of used out there, none tested of course...., but haven't managed to find the one I need yet.

Identification numbers are:
019-7002-01
1005827.

Got any ideas?

Thanks folks,
Richard
