Park G10 by Marshall - guitar amp question

[flintan]

I have this small guitar amp Park G10 wich i really like the sound of. I'm thinking of modding it to have an effects send/return because i would like to be able to use reverb and delay after the distortion section at the input.

Anyone have or know where to find the schematic? Maybe someone else also have experience from messing with this nice little amp?

I have sent a mail asking for the schematic to Marshall but no reply yet..

I rebuilt one a few years ago, needed all new pots and PSU was shot.
I modified it a little with all new IC's and sweetened up the OD section, with
a diode change and a few caps.
I thought it was still sounding like a cheap overdrive pedal !
Gutted it, fitted a nice "amp sim" front end from www.runoffgroove.com
I think I went with the "English Channel" ( AC30 type ) and then built a new
power amp using a TDA2050, which gave me about 15 watts running it on
a single "beefy" 18v supply - more if you use +/- 15 or so.
It's a cool sounding little amp now, great tone and quite loud enough for a
small rehearsal room / gig !
I looked hard but didn't find a schem for the G10 ..... you could build something
much better in about 4 hrs

Well, i like it for what it is. But it seems almost impossible to get a schematic. Got a reply from marshall, they redirected it to the swedish agent and they just pointed me for support to where i bought the amp... I bought it used so..

Hi,
i know this is an OLD thread, but if it can help anyone in the futur...
Here is the schematic (found on the internet, hope its ok to post it here)

I have a question regarding the value of resistor R30 (on the very right side of the schematic under the headphone output jack)
its not very clear on the schematic but seems this is a 0.1 ohm 1/2 watt ?
It is connected in series from the center tap of the power transformer to the common/ground terminal of the headphone output jack.
Can someone please confirm this is the correct value ?
Also what is the role of this resistor ?
Thank you

"In order to write Ohm values easily in schematics, R is used for sub 1000 Ohm values, as 0R1 = 0.1 Ohm"

snipped it out of my G10R just to make sure

it is probably a fake fuse, or a soft ground, or a F/B resistor, no time to analyze,e, shop is closing, gotta go bar b que a NY steak which id better than new york city, mo offense,

yes it is an amazing amp for a POS.

It looks like it is for mixed feedback

Also what is the role of this resistor ?
