Sr-45 with upgraded mq iron
« on: July 25, 2015, 03:14:44 PM »
When I tried to upgrade my sr-45 to top mounted mq dowdy chokes and m4 tfa2004 sr's I seriously damaged the amp. PB was kind enough to take on the project for me. He rebuilt the amps and they came out really nice! Definitely a more authoritative sound. Thanks Paul!

Taran,

I had wondered what you were up to.  Now I know.  Which one is the choke?

Wow they are beautiful.  Paul did a nice job.

Yes Paul does great work! The choke is the larger piece of iron.

Yes stock paramour II chassis plates powder coated. They could use larger plates. The large 45 tube is perilously close to the choke.
