Majestic model 20
#3

There's something wrong with your Majestic. It doesn't look like mine. Both of the finials are there (though apparently someone painted them that ugly yellow.. they're not that way in R/L.)

My God help you when you go to fix that thing. On mine, the transformer was shorted, and of course every cap in the set was bad. They're an unholy nightmare to service, since the chassis must come apart to do any cap replacement (the entire bottom of the chassis has the caps, output transformer and chokes attached to it, and you must disconnect several wires and remove the bottom as a unit!) Good players when you've finished, though.
