Thanks for the info!
It was the original Xformer that failed not the hammond and the set ran for several days before it failed. Opened it up and it doesn't smell good and I have unstacked the laminations but have not seen anything, might have a go at rewinding the primary. The Xformer should draw next to nothing unloaded just some excitation current. When I get home I will install the new one and probably ground one leg of the 6.3v and see what happens. Thanks again
