I especially like the BAD stickers on the driver tubes...

That 5AR4 tested new..... ;) NOT!

On another note, I posted the picture here before but here is the after picture of the same amp.

The improvement is subtle but I can see it. Different colour caps maybe? ;)

Ty: I see pictures here and there of '70s with a big choke between the board and the power trans, I always wonder how well that works. Does it radiate hum into the driver tubes?

The sand on that board is a nice touch. Helps damp out microphonics...?
