Those were pretty nice parts you just had "lying around".

If you have trouble finding use for them, I could always relieve your burden...
Are you running 50uF mains and 50uF screens?

Yea, if you ever need to get rid of some spare parts, I'll gladly take them. As a courtesy to help you organize.

Yeah, really nice, mikey!!! Where ya been??
Only thing I don't like is the way the knobs sit off the face plate (Here's a hint though, don't drill them any deeper unless you use a flat bottom drill or end mill...you'll ruin a few...

)

That is one awesome build, man !
Yeah Chief, about doze knobs... For what I see here the finishing touches would be a set of Scott's.
Available on eBay
U.K. (right now !) and once-in-a-while, U.S.
(Here are the ones I have...)
Need I mention, whilst you're snoopin',
to acquire some
china hats...
Killer job, bro !

Hey, I don't shine no mo, Billy! Maybe I need to borrow momma's steak knife to cut the "hoof out of the grill"...
I got a bottle of TQ with your name on it for next visit, buddy!
Jimi, tell me more about those knobs. I ruined a whole set trying to counterbore them deeper.

Yes I hate it when you think you have finished and you have two or three 'part amps' which you just have to finish by buying more stuff and on it goes
Nice work, btw, but I guess you know that already

From my understanding were manufactured for those fine English chaps at Marshall & H.H. Scott
