HAMMOND: 1751M Output Transformer Datasheet

From the Hammond 1750 output transformer series, this is listed as a drop-in replacement for a Fender Vibrolux Tweed, 5F11  -  they're supposed to look similar to the original Fender transformer where possible.  That being said - this sticks out like dog’s balls when mounted on a crusty old amp. 

Materials etc are also supposed to be similar to get as close as they can (within reason I suppose).

It was a bargain, at $76 +GST (Australian dollars) from Mouser, including free delivery.  Like all things Hammond, it feels well made.

HAMMOND: 125SE Output Transformer Data

Yes, this is super nerdy and I may be the only person that will ever find it useful - I combined the specs from the Hammond 125SE series into one table, as I found it really annoying to check through individual datasheets.

I recently installed one in a Vox AC4-C1 12 just to see if changing the transformer would improve the amp.  Short story, yes it did.
