The Hammond Manufacturing 290RX is a power transformer designed for tube guitar amplifiers, specifically serving as a replacement for Fender and Tone Master models. It features a single primary winding rated at 120 VAC and operates at a frequency of 60 Hz. The unit provides triple secondary windings with a center-tapped output of 337 VAC CT, alongside auxiliary voltages of 56 VAC and 6.3 VAC. The maximum secondary current rating is 1.1 A. Designed for chassis mounting, the transformer utilizes wire leads for termination. Its physical dimensions are 141.73 mm in length, 95.4 mm in width, and 116.84 mm in height.
Verify that the target amplifier model explicitly lists the 290RX or its direct equivalent as the original power transformer specification. Confirm that the chassis mounting holes align with the new unit's dimensions before purchase. Ensure the existing wiring harness supports the wire lead termination style provided by this component to avoid modification issues during installation.
Select the 290RX only when replacing a failed unit in compatible Fender or Tone Master amplifiers. This component is not interchangeable with other 290 series transformers due to unique voltage and current ratings. Ensure the replacement matches the original single primary configuration and triple secondary output structure to maintain proper amplifier operation and safety standards.
The 290RX belongs to the Hammond 290 Series, a line of power transformers widely used in vintage and reissue tube guitar amplifiers. This series is known for providing reliable power conversion for audio applications requiring specific voltage taps. The 290RX specifically addresses the needs of modern reproductions of classic Fender designs, maintaining historical accuracy in electrical performance while meeting current manufacturing standards.
Direct substitute part numbers include the original OEM designations used by Fender for this amplifier chassis. Verify compatibility with Tone Master variants before installation.
