-DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF TUBE AMPLIFIERS
Published: March 12, 2026
Video Description
I found this Panasonic RQ-113S 3 inch Reel to Reel Tape Recorder at an estate sale two blocks from my house last week. It was in an outbuilding and was covered in dust and bug carcasses, but it had a mysterious tape with it. In this video, we'll try to get the player working and see what's on the tape, then at the end of the video, we'll see what these Matsushita Germanium transistors sound like as a guitar amplifier.
This thing can get all those Tony Iommi and Brian May Dallas Rangemaster Treble Booster and Deacy Amp tones as well as those Tom Scholz cocked wah tones...and it even has a convenient output!
