Tore into the monster. Have it all apart save the changer, and I do not know how that comes out Icon_redface Icon_redface Icon_redface

Both 6v6 show Gas, 6SQ7 dead, FM1000 shows bad on tester. All others test super, surprised that coke bottle 5U4 was still very good.

Question on capacitors. I know the difference of electrolytics, however are they any caps that I should aim for or stay away from? Wholesale replacement of all capacitors including the cans? Is their someone on the site that sells capacitors? I would rather support site folk as opposed to say; Parts Express or Radio Shack. (They have improved grately over the last few years IMHO)

Cabinet super condition, save some character marks on the top. Some minior heat damage above the 5U4 heat generator. Impressed with the quality of the build and quality of the wood.
