Yes his workmanship standard was always very high, and yes he did work alone, I'm not sure if he made them order, but more than likely as most of his customers were exclusive as he lived in a well to do area and the locals knew he was the 'guru' when it came to good quality electronics back then.
I'm sure Alan would have been pleased that I saved this set from being dumped and getting it going again is pretty much in his honor.... He was a good friend of mine and after he passed away his daugther told me he'd once said that I was the like the son he never had...That brought a tear to my eye...So this is definetly something to treasure.
