This looks like the same model I have. I just pulled it out the other day. I had previously replaced a few of the caps in the vertical circuit due to insufficient height but it still wasn't right. I had to pull the chassis loose and replace one more and that did it. Unfortunately the crt on mine isn't real strong. With the normal/fringe switch turned to, I think, normal, the faces tend to go shiny and negative. The tube chart has the crt # crossed out and another one written in so I guess it was swapped, but that was long enough ago for the replacement to wear out as well. I've heard these were "motel specials" and I'm pretty sure mine is. Anyway, for no more than I use it I can't complain.

I wouldn't worry about the fusible resistor unless it goes bad. I got my set cheap because the old one was shot. I had rigged up something with some new resistors but then I found a NOS part.
