Good grief! where was I?

Anyway, I have become motivated to get the Bogens (the first amp anyway) on the bench. This is the unit we bought several years ago to match the one owned by my Father in law. It was sold as repaired, and the only evidence of this is two new caps which are presumably the signal coupling caps to the output valves. Everything else looks original. It does (did) seem to work fine, but who knows what potential disaster is lurking in the power supply caps. There are four, including three cans on the top of the chassis one of which is multi section. This adds up to a lot of restuffing if I go that route.

Otherwise, there is a mixture of ceramic disk and paper caps. The paper caps I testsed don't show any leakage, but I'll replace them, since a DVM is not the same as a hipot test near working voltage.
