Fender sidekick transformer
Posted: 11 May 2023, 18:21
I am trying to convert a Europe-spec 90's Fender Sidekick 15 reverb amp (sorry, not a tube amp) to run on North American power. Looking at the power section of the schematic (see attached), it seems to me that all I need is a new power transformer capable of delivering 21V center tap like this one https://www.hammfg.com/files/parts/pdf/166J20.pdf. Does that sound right?
If that helps, the part list for the sidekick series list the following part numbers, which I was not able to decrypt: Transformer, Power, F2158UC, F-168UC, F-1008UC, SK-25, 20VC, or SK-35, 30VC.
