does anyone know where to get power supply adaptor for mesa V-twins? or has anyone here made one from any particular electronic store b4? and would kindly refer me there? cuz i need a power supply for it. and if anyone has other alternative sources for it please share with me!

cuz i heard that the power supply cant be jus made like that.. there are certain details that u have to pay attention to. but i am not sure of what! and my v twin is like sitting there doing nothing!!

thanks pple!! much help needed!
 
this is the adaptor for v twin, the model number or rating of it should help in getting it either locally or online. It need an ac adaptor, 12vac at 1000ma

Off my head here but I "think" you maybe able to use a Line6 power supply for those xx4 series modellers. I may be wrong but do check the specs. Check with City Music. It may just fit right in. If the power specs are the same and you can't plug it in, then a simple snip and solder, and you're done.

Also if I can remember correctly the Electro Harmonix power supplies for the tube series can be adapted to use. Just need to snip off the plug and wire up the compatible one.

In anycase if you still can't find, call up Koba @ 65331672 and check if they have any power supply adapter with an output of 12 VAC (Remember to say V.A.C. as most power supplies out there are V.D.C.) rated to 1000mA and/or above. Very likely you'll need to change the plug.
 
you can find an adaptor with those specifications easily at a few stores at Sim Lim Tower (not Sim Lim Square) 3rd floor. $15-20.

bought one there with the exact same specs (12V AC, 1000mA) for my Hughes & Kettner Tubeman. it was a modem adaptor.. worked perfectly. :D
