The amp turned up tonight and let's just say it was an interesting sight.

One of the filter caps is missing, a couple of resistors show significant heat damage and there are a number of wires swinging in the breeze.

The thing that startled me most is that quite a bit of the wiring is 0.4mm solid core telephone wire, from 200pr cable for those who are familiar.

Not a big deal to fix but a major surprise, my first amp build was an AC30 clone back in 1965, I worked for the then PMG and had access to anything I wanted but did use proper hookup wire that was fit for purpose
