Hello everyone.  I just got a 60B at the Vintage Electronics Expo.  I haven't pulled the chassis yet, but one of the 8uf aluminum electrolytic cans was removed.  Before I track down a new can, has anyone ever seen a 60 with Mershon caps installed?  The reason I ask is that I have all the materials to build two replacement Mershon-like cans.  If the answer is yes, then I'll probably go that route.  If no then I'll  track down an original replacement.  Thanks in advance.  Take care and BE HEALTHY!   Gary
