Members SonicVI Posted September 13, 2012 Members Share Posted September 13, 2012 Actually, I got this last week when the boards were down. '63 Bandmaster 6G7-A. It came to me 100% original, every single component and screw. The filter cap pan had never been removed and was still stuck on with weather stripping. Surprisingly it was very quiet despite having the original 50 year old filter caps, some of which were bubbled. Since these pics I have cleaned the tolex, cleaned the pots and tube sockets, installed a grounded power cable, replaced all of the electrolytics and converted to adjustable bias. It's full of old RCA tubes and sounds awesome. The harmonic vibrato trem is just beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil O'Keefe Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 You should place a plastic tarp under that amp to prevent the awesomesauce that is dripping out of every inch of it from ruining your floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
