How do you wire a fender style jewel lamp on an 18 watt build?

That's what I use. I use them with #47 bulbs and connect it to the 6.3V for the heaters. You can see my typical setup in my Lite 2b layout: files/JMPGuitars_18_Watt_Lite_2b_Layout.pdf

Thanks,

I used Heyboer transformer that doesn’t have center taps. How would I wire with wires already connected. Also. I just put in a 120v lamp and it sucked the volume from my TMB channel. When I wired fender pilot lamp without realizing 6v lamp didn’t work but TMB was loud like it should be. I’m stumped on two issues.
