Is the Old Black Flag PT the same dimension?

It looks like it. That would make it a 2.5". I think I've read there was a 3" power tranny used by Marshall back in the day as well. I don't know what amp it would have been in though.yngwie308 wrote:Is the Old Black Flag PT the same dimension?

Thanks George. What power trannys do you use for your master volume builds? And what B+ do you normally get?VelvetGeorge wrote:Looks great! You can expect approx 485V B+ using the higher taps and 445V B+ using the 170V taps. This will vary a little due to input AC, filtering bias ect.

Will this power tranny work with a master volume circuit? I'm not familiar with all the tabs on the back, so I was wondering.

The 1203-80 had a 2.5 inch stack and a standard 3 x 3.750 bolt pattern. The 1204-43 was the 3 inch stack PT and yes, it had a 560VDC plate voltage.Is the Old Black Flag PT the same dimension?

I have the same tranny but my high taps are 472, and my low taps are around 435. I use George's dual tap switch, and between that and the variac. I can go from 472 down to 435, without even comming close to being too low on my heaters, then if I want to go lower, I switch to the lower taps, and go from there all the way down to 390 and still have 2.9v on each heater to ground.
I love that flexibility.
You could do the same with George's, butI wish his lower tap was a 450, for the most flexibility, for the way I would use it for all points between 500 down to 390.
Lots of great tones in that range.
