I had one, the tube sockets and circuit boards were so stuffed, the tubes internally arced when I turned it on.Seemed to be ok after tightening all the output tube connectors.
However, I dissaasembled the thing for the output and power trannies in the end- it needed a complete overhaul, and I wanted to build a new amp with the guts using 807s.
Also seriously recommend changing the selenium bias rectifier to a silicon diode.
