Converting a Bluesboy to ASAT 50 wiring?

I am considering converting an ASAT Classic Bluesboy (US-built) to ASAT 50-style wiring. Is there a diagram/schematic available somewhere, or would I just have to locate and follow what is available for a F++++r Esquire?

Thanks in advance!

if you ask the member yowhatsshakin he may be able to take a pic of the electronics so you can figure it out from that.

To the best of my knowledge, the wiring of the ASAT '50 is based in the original wiring of a '50s Esquire. The wiring was dug up by Tony Pedrilla with whom designer Tim Page collaborated on this model. Here are some pics (click on them if you want to see them larger):


You'll notice that instead of .047μF as shown in the linked diagram, all caps are .05μF, combined with the 3.3kΩ resistor.

Hope this helps,
