Verified · 92/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.

The YGM-1 Guitar Mate Reverb is Traynor's 1967 small valve combo. Three inputs feed a 12AU7A stage, bass and treble controls and a volume, then the second 12AU7A stage. A paralleled 12AX7A drives a spring reverb line through a transformer, with a 12AX7A recovery stage, reverb level and footswitch. The other half of that valve runs a tremolo with speed and intensity, and a 12AX7A long-tail inverter drives two cathode-biased 6BQ5 (EL84) output valves.
