Hey, here is the Mini Gem I picked the other day for €50! It is in near mint condition, apart from light scratches on the lid and one scratch at the back of the grey top. Interestingly, it has the schematics glued inside the grey top and it bears the date 23 feb 1968! Cool! It suffers from bad contacts in the vibrato, and a couple of keys are scratchy. there is a hum in the speaker but sounds come out loud & clear... I'm hoping to have it in working order for our next gig in 2 weeks time!! ye-hey!

Hey, I just got a GEM Jumbo and I think it has the same transistors as the mini. Are they texas Instrument transistors on yours? Do you know anything more about them, like with what to replace them for instance? Greetings from Amsterdam
