I would do exactly what Reece suggests. Something that would be educational and also rewarding would be to get a simple, cheap 'AA5' that kinda works but hums real bad, and teach yourself how to replace the filter capacitors. I had been collecting for probably 15 years before I really fixed anything; before that it was just jiggling things & swapping tubes. I still remember that first set I brought back from the dead by changing the filters-a great feeling!
