Sovtek Mig Question.......

My Mig 60 was hand wired for the most part. I do have a sound clip of it boosted with an OD box that I can email to you if you want. The playing is sloppy and you can hear where I would get heavy handed and then light handed on with the pick. It was about 3 years ago and I had just bought a digital recorder so I was playing and tweaking the knobs trying to figure out what I was doing.

i had an early mig100h that was hand wired.most of it was built on turrett boards and the only things i ever had problems with it were the input jacks .the jacks from the factory were plastic but i had em changed over and the amp was bulletproof after that.
its been a couple of years ago but iirc the pots,jacks and tube sockets were all chassis mounted.

Oh wow. really handwired? I wouldnt' have thought so with the cheapie plastic jacks, but that's pretty awesome. Such a good value.

 

 

I peaked inside several times and mine came stock with metal jacks. Mine had chicken head knobs but I have seen others with the small round knobs. The chicken heads were sweet!

they're certainly not handwired. They dont' have the greatest construction, but not the worst either. They sound really good.

I dont know what year model you were looking at but my MIG 100 is hand wired also has ceramic tube seats.

OT but, I had a Sovtek tube midget as my first tube amp. It was 50 watts and had a lot of gain than I expected. unfortunately I didn't have any pedals so all I got was the tube gain it had. But it sounded quite mediocre. I threw it away before I got my record 3 years later. 🙄
