I'd just try to find a good working Fender BF Schumacher PT replacement, if that doesn't pan out, I'd go with a Classic Tone # 40-18005 @ around $70.20

I was hoping for a transformer that did not require a chassis cutout.. Any exact replica drop in's?
Thanks

EZS is correct, the Classic Tone should be an exact drop in replacement for your Schumacher PT. Just drop an email or call Classic Tone if you're still not sure.
