Hey all,
Longtime lurker first time poster. Thanks to the forum for helping me over the years troubleshooting and fixing up various instruments. I have been working on reviving an early cembalet N back from the grave. It was pretty corroded all over so I went ahead and completely stripped the case and took everything apart to clean the rust. It was missing the power cable and pedal so I never tried to turn it on before I got it. I have replaced most components in the amp to the point where I feel good firing it up. This thing still has a LONG way to go. And finding parts is unicorn status.

So I have the rebuilt reed bar back together and the amp back in the rebuilt case. Long story short is it is getting power but it seems my beyer transformer is shot. There's a short in the primary. Secondary is reading 142 ohms. I can't find any information on the specs of the transformer and the only beyer barrel nowadays seems to be for the clavinet ( 1:15) ratio. Should be the same input transformer in a pianet n. I'm putting it out to the universe. Can anybody help? Anybody with a pianet or cembalet n that's handy with a multimeter thanks all.
