These look great and I will be picking one up to do a '69SL build...giving in to vanity and forever waving goodbye to any remains of sanity in my system.

One question: are the output tube holes punched for NOS sockets or the slightly larger holes for new (i.e. Belton) sockets?

The power tube socket holes will accept the modern (larger) sockets.

Will the old metro 50 watt front panel work on this (I assumed it's the same as the 100 watter..)

Yes they will fit - front panels are the same for 50 and 100w. The JTM45 have a slightly different offset which has to be borne in mind when fitting into a headbox.
