I was hoping someone out there might know if this is an easy swap. I know MM stopped using the 1-65 early on and switched most 2275-65s to the 100-65-120 P/T, so when I ordered a replacement, that was all I could get. The wire colors are different on the two, and Andy Turner from Mojotone is out this week, so if anyone can give me some guidence, I'd really appreciate it! |

Service bulletins to the rescue! |

Then again, maybe not! |

Okay, folks. The amp is finished. For those of you who may have to replace a 1-65 power transformer with a 100-65, service bulletin 4 is definately the bible, BUT the people at Music Man forgot to mention one thing: The standby switch is now the power switch, and standby is now the middle position of the Hi/Off/Low switch on the front panel! Happy tweaking! |

What you are describing is the main difference between the AC power configuration of an early 1974-76 amp and the later 1977-80 amps of the same basic model! |
