Near and dear to many of our hearts is Dynaco's ST35. Here is an example by 'The Maestro.' http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dynaco-ST-35-audiophile-quality-upgraded-parts-chassis-cage-/191735380866
I'm seeing this guy as Mark Metcalf's character from the episode of Seinfeld. O Mio Babbino Caro.
He has some nice parts but.... First thing I notice is the power transformer is backwards. The heater wires should come out toward the back and cross the output transformer secondary wires at a 90 degree angle, not parallel them. What is up with the 'white glob'? Is it adhesive tape? Is this R11? What is the brown resistor at the end of the white glob? Is this mess floating or attached to the chassis? Is the large black power resistor [R12?] floating? Why so many splices? For $1,000.00 I would expect wires that are the correct length.
I sent this guy a message and tried to be gentle but no reply so far. If this sells for a grand I'm selling mine for $10K.
