Selmer Thunderbird Twin 30 - Normal preset
Verified · 83/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.
The Thunderbird Twin 30 is a two-channel valve combo from Selmer London's croc-skin range of the mid-1960s. Channel 1 has an ECC83 input, Selmer's push-button tone selector and a 6BR8 stage with its own volume; channel 2 has an ECC83 input, treble and bass and its own 6BR8 and volume. ECC81 stages drive and recover a spring reverb, and the vibrato's EM84 'blinking eye' pulses with its speed. An ECC83 inverter drives two EL34s from a GZ34.
