I have looked on this site for the Kasino Concert 120 Watt Head and I'm trying to figure out the Bulb that goes into the
Illumination Socket.......I have repaired this amp but the # 47 Bayonet bulb that was in it ( I don't believe it's the right one ) keeps blowing out after a short while...Amp stays on though....In the Kustom 200 , I see that it uses a 1302 bulb???
Could this be the same one in the Kasino Concert??
Does anyone have the information on the correct voltage and size of this bulb for the Kasino Concert??
On most schematics I can see the layout of the bulb path but it does not list the bulb # or voltage....
I'm guessing maybe 6.5.??
Thanks

The concert model along with all of the Kasinos, K100s and K200b models all use the same 1829 pilot lamp bulb.

It's no wonder the 47 burns out as it's a 6.3 volt bulb as used in many tube amps , but the 1829 is a 28 volt bulb!

Thanks for the info...Works great now....Still trying to figure out 2.2k resistor that feeds small bulb on another amp....
Bulb is out on a 150 watt amp / board number 5116....Might take a chance and feed 120 volt bulb to switch to turn on when activated..
What's the best way to figure this out before I do this alternative hook-up.????

I and no one else without a schematic of this amp can easily help you out with this bulb question you have , just passing along the info of the resistor that feeds it does not help one little bit!

If you tell us how much voltage is coming into this resistor and if it's a ac or D.C. Voltage ( I will for now assume it's D.C.) then we may have a shot at helping you, other wise we need crystal ball !
