TheGuitologist

Like the title says...this Jackson Model 49 Customatic Tube Tester nearly caught my house on fire. Or maybe it did catch it on fire, and now I'm deceased and dreaming of making this video of the restoration and repair. Maybe you're all figments of my past life imagination. Maybe I've become an electron and I'm now trapped inside this tester forever. Going round and round the circuit, aimlessly and yet with queer purpose. No, not that kind.

This short video is to demonstrate an esoteric, specialized piece of test equipment I recently found at a Goodwill store for $5. It is a Mikrotest Made by Electrophyysik-Koln in Germany. This piece of test gear uses magnetism to test the thickness of any coating over ferrous metals. Used in quality control in factories or anywhere the thickness of coatings over metal objects needs to be checked. In this video, we'll look at how to use this weird little mechanism. I believe this example was probably made in the 1960s or 1970s, judging by the case and the styling, and was distributed in the USA by Nordson Corp., Amhurst, Ohio.

In the late 1950s, engineers at EMI Studios, later renamed "Abbey Road Studios", purchased new Altec 436B compressors from the US to install in their control rooms. The original 436 compressors were designed for "set it and forget it" applications in music halls and public forums where various speakers of different vocal volumes might be taking turns on the same microphones, and thus an easy to use compressor was necessary. The EMI engineers, realizing the potential and limitations of these units, set to work modifying them with additional controls and impedance selections. The resulting compressors were used on every Abbey Road Beatles record have been dubbed the EMI RS124 units. Similar vintage and reissue units are highly sought after today. Chandler Limited makes reissues that cost in the thousands and many recording plugins feature modelers of these units. Practically anything Beatles related fetches lots of money and attention, but these Altecs deserve both. Here we will take a pair of 1960s 438A compressor/preamps, which are the big brother of the 436 series, and are an even better platform for mods than the 436, because they include an additional 12AY7 preamp tube not present in the 436B or 436C. In this video, we'll detail how to add additional controls for Threshold and Release to the 438A, while also introducing the capability of turning the 6AL5 dual diode compression tube OFF. We'll also add a second 50K dual gang volume control after the phase splitter transformer, which will allow more control over the gain of the preamp. Finally, we'll swap the 12AY7 and 6BC8 tubes for 12AX7 and 6AQ8, respectively. This will give the preamp more potential gain and allow the recording engineer to drive the tube preamps harder, if desired.

In this video we'll look at one of the most common failure points in LCD screen TVs with LED backlights. Eventually enough of the LEDs burn out and the screen stops lighting. Rather than replacing the LED strips, in this video we will explore how best to repair surface mounted LEDs on the backlight strips at board level. This video includes the following models, but the methods will apply to many other models as well: Samsung UN46FH6030F Samsung UN46EH5000F SUBSCRIBE TO CHANNEL 2: http://bit.ly/Guitologist2 *SHOW YOUR SUPPORT* 1: Donate via Paypal: https://paypal.me/guitologist?locale.x=en_US 2: Buy Merch: http://bit.ly/GuitologistMerch 3: Send in Viewer Mail.

I got these vintage Made in Japan reel to reel tape player recorders years ago. One is a Peerless TP-425, the other is a Nuvox NR-444. They came out of an estate sale in Western Kentucky and included a box of tapes with unknown contents! One of the tapes has some unknown acoustic guitarist playing on it, but to hear it clearly, we'll have to first repair the players. At the end, for giggles, we'll plug a guitar in and see what kind of noise we can make.

Here's an old vintage battery charger I recently saved from the garbage. It has the same problem pretty much ALL these old chargers have, but we'll fix that and add some safety features. These are great for charging lead acid or sealed lead acid batteries (SLA), and can often charge batteries other modern chargers won't even attempt to charge, so they have a usefulness and should not be discarded. But how SAFE are they? Let's see how we can repair one and make it safer at the same time.

I got this Admiral washing machine Type 587-07 off the curb for FREE. The owner threw it away because it had a bad grinding noise when in the agitation cycle. So I suspected a bad bearing, or something else in the $200 transmission probably bad. I was WRONG! In the process of troubleshooting the issue, I had to learn what a SPLUTCH is and how best to fix this noise on this particular type of top loader Whirlpool-made washer. Here are the model numbers possibly affected by this problem to which this cheap and easy fix might apply: Whirlpool Model WTW4816FW Admiral Model ATW4675YQ1 Amana Model NTW4516FW Maytag Model MVWC565FW Kenmore Model 11020022012 There are probably other model number variations which will be affected by this, some older and some newer, but all of these machines are built on the same chassis and basic mechanics. There may be some differences in functions or options, but they are surface level. They're really all the same basic machine. To be clear, this particular issue would NOT be solved by replacing the splutch assembly, which can be found here: https://amzn.to/3aPlL3L Replacing the entire transmission MIGHT have fixed it, but it would be a crap shoot and you'd spend $200 on the part: https://amzn.to/3tp4eWu SUBSCRIBE TO CHANNEL 2: http://bit.ly/Guitologist2 *SHOW YOUR SUPPORT* 1: Donate via Paypal: https://paypal.me/guitologist?locale.x=en_US 2: Buy Merch: http://bit.ly/GuitologistMerch 3: Send in Viewer Mail.

This Troy Bilt Jump Start Model TB625EC 4-Cycle 30cc was found in the garbage. In this video, we'll figure out why it was thrown away, and you won't believe the reason. I'll show you what must be a common fault on this model - the pull start mechanism - and how to fix it so it hopefully won't break the same way again. The pull start clutch mechanism is so abysmally designed, I'd be surprised if there are any left running at all with the original parts in them. If you have not fixed your Troy Bilt weed eater in this way, you should do it. I'll also show what can happen when you overfill the oil level on a 4-stroke trimmer.

Here is yet another piece of lawncare equipment I found on the side of the road on trash pickup day. This is a Homelite Trimlite 25cc 2-stroke weed trimmer, Model 5HCPS. This seems to share a lot of parts with the UT20006 and the UT-20706 TrimLite. Probably others as well. Let's wrench on it and find out why it was thrown in the garbage.

I found this dirty, disgusting porch swing on the curb on trash day up the street from my house. Let's see if we can restore it to working order and possibly use some wood from an old pallet to transform it into a stationary bench for my back deck. I need a place to sit and watch my wild baby rabbits.

In this video we will look at how to replace a trashed diaphragm and voice coil on a Shure SM57 microphone. Shure makes a replacement part called the R57. They also offer a "repair" service where most people indicate means they send you an all new SM57 to replace a broken one. Also you can buy a couple different Chinese replacement parts for it, but we'll go with the cheap one which costs about $5 or $6. We'll also talk about how to spot a fake SM57 and not get ripped off.

Here's another case of "why'd they throw this away"? I found this Weed Eater FL1500LE 23cc 2-Stroke Gas Powered Leaf Blower on the curb on trash day and decided to see if it can be repaired... For one thing, the pull start cord is stuck in the out position and won't retract. This appears to be a common issue with these. We'll have to fix that. And there may be carburetor problems too.

In recent months, I have found not one, but TWO Bissell carpet shampooers on the curb on trash day. One is a Bissell ProHeat 2x. The other, which we will look at in today's video, is a DeepClean Premier, Model 47A2, which is similar to the current production "Pet" version, the Model 17N4 and the 80R4. My daughter Ivy and I will check this unit out and see if it can be cleaned up and fixed. Nothing like free appliances!

In our last video, we looked at a vintage 1930s mechanical pencil/lighter combination. In this one, we'll restore a fountain pen from around 1950. This is an Esterbrook J Series "Double Jewel" with a 9550 nib. I think I scored this at an estate sale a couple years back. It is a "lever fill" type fountain pen, meaning there is a lever on the side of the pen which, when lifted, pushes down on an internal ink sack to create a vacuum and suck up ink from an ink well. As with most fountain pens of this age, the ink sack has long since gone hard and brittle and will need to be replaced. But this example is also missing an important part necessary to its operation. Can we still get parts for it? Also, I end up having to reshape the nib on this slightly as it is too scratchy. I'll show that process as well.

This is a change of pace video. I have a modest collection of vintage fountain pens and pencils. I'm just getting around to restoring them to working order. This is one of them. It is a 1930s or 1940s Havalite Bakelite mechanical pencil which hides a secret...it's also a cigarette lighter! Here are some resources for further reading on this vintage curiosity: http://www.toledo-bend.us/VCL/articles/index.asp?request=tolkin_04 http://www.vintage-evans-and-classic-cigarette-lighters.com/pencil.php https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/95/91/97/beb4c68071669f/US1903203.pdf https://andersonpens.com/ *SHOW YOUR SUPPORT* 1: Donate via Paypal: https://paypal.me/guitologist?locale.x=en_US 2: Buy Merch: http://bit.ly/GuitologistMerch 3: Send in Viewer Mail.

Official inflation rate hits a 40-year high, which is more than you can even make on a rental property. And this is just the "official" rate. The actual inflation rate when all expenses are considered is probably twice that. In short, politicians should be fired en masse.

Follow along with my friend TJ and I to Indianapolis to see and bunch of guitars and amps and whatnot. Lots of Les Pauls, Strats, and Teles, but also lots of vintage gear we don't see very often. Gibson amps a-plenty. Tons of pre-CBS Fenders. Plenty of oddball stuff to gawk at. Stay to the end to find out what I bought and how much I paid!
