Members stevemcb Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Hi guys,A friend just moved to Vancouver, bought a tele in NYC on the way, and right now has no amp. He's gonna be moving back to New Zealand in 18 months, so is thinking of buying a small tube amp for his time in Canada, but ideally it would be voltage switchable so that he can bring it home and use it without needing a step-down transformer. Any ideas? He's pretty keen on the Vox AC4 (which I think is a good thought) but I'm pretty sure they do separate 110v and 240v models rather than switching. Also, he has an old Johnson J-station which he's taken as a headphone amp. Any Canadians can tell me where in Vancouver he could get a 9VAC adapter (needs to output AC for the J-station). Cheers,Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get a 9VAC adapter at SMI Electronics in Langley also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stevemcb Posted July 22, 2012 Author Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 The Tweaker is a great call. I'll pass it on to him. Any Canadian amp companies (Traynor??) do switchable voltage?Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boytbpc Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I got a Tweaker and love it. I used mine in Turkey (220v) and am shipping it to Canada as we speak to use when I get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
