       Actually, what I'm thinking of doing is getting the schematic for a 
Blackface Dual Showman head and building it into a head and make a 4x12 slant 
cab for it with Carvin 12 inchers.
       Do any of you guys have the schematic for the Blackface Dual Showman? 
Also, do you have the dimensions for a Marshall 4x12 slant? Also, think I 
should use Carvin Vintage 12s or the British 12s? Actually, which would be 
the closest to Peavey Sheffeilds, because when I played a Dual Showman 
through a Sheffeild loaded 4x12, the tone was SOOOOOO sweet. The Peavey cabs 
are basically Marshall dimensions, right? And can I order Sheffeilds from 
Peavey?
       Also, where can I get the boards for the point-to-point wiring? I plan 
on doing this just like the real thing and that's basically the only thing 
I'll probably have trouble getting. Trannies, caps, resistors, tubes, sockets 
and stuff will be easy to get since my friend/bandmate Neal's friend works at 
a shop repairing amps and can get the parts for me from the salvage bin.
       Oh, about the transformers, what are the specs on what I'll need for a 
Dual Showman? Unless it's already there in the schem, I'm going to put a 
switch coming from the output tranny to switch speaker impedances. I just 
need to know what kind of voltages, ohm ratings, and such I should be getting 
off a tranny.         I really have a bug for this setup and just CANNOT find 
the Dual Showman schem on the 'Net.        Thanks guys. If you happen to have 
it, but can't scan it, photocopies will do. I'll pay for that and mailing 
costs if you want.
