116x Restoration
#11

Finished the recapping last night. Powered up and it sings. The tone switch has something funky going on with it though. When moving the tone switch the sound will squeal, and pop and carry on until you get it just right. I sprayed it and the band switch with deoxit and let it sit over night we'll see if that made a difference tonight.

I have to say from the few minutes I had the set playing that it is a very sensitive set. I suspect it will be a very good performer after an alignment.
