Hi Don,

If Tele can't help you, go to www.gibson.com and navigate your way to the Customer Support e-mail form. They provided me with a schematic for an old GA-100 bass amp, although they had no info as to mfg dates, etc. They also helped me identify a 30's vintage Gibson arch-top. Very helpful folks.

Editing this post - just tried this myself and saw the following link - http://www.gibson.com/relations/schematics/diagrams/ga-30b.gif

is it a GA-30 amp?

Hope this is useful, and good luck.

Tele and Lou, thank you both for your response. This amp is a G-30 Solid State unit rated at 38 watts. Apparently the GA series amps were tube types. I can locate schematics for those, but have been unable to find one for the "G" series solid state, but I haven't given up yet.

If you should happen to run up on a lead please let me know.

Thanks again,

Don

Hi Don,

You're correct, the ga-30 and ga-100 are tube amps - I was hoping you'd just omitted the "a" from the model number.

The best I can do is to repeat myself - send an email to relations@gibson.com with your request. If you've already done that, and they can't help, then I'm stumped.

Good luck

Lou
