Thanks. That set really fell into my lap. I was walking by a new & used stereo shop a few blocks from my place one night and spied it in the window. They were using it for a sales prop.



I went back the next day and asked the owner if it was for sale. He seemed really surprised someone was interested in it. We haggled for a while and I went home with it

Too bad someone used the vent hole for an ashtray


There's a lot of really silly stuff it that place. Modern amps with little windows so you can see the 12AX7s glowing inside
