I wish I had a shitload of this old paxolin material. Looks great up close (chocolate brown) and with the old style split top turrets it makes for a real good looking board for the JTM 45 build.

I love building with that stuff, I have a small stash myself (maybe enough for another 6 boards) and made a 5w SE 6V6 amp with some of it. The good news is that even when it runs out, there are guys making repro board that looks spot on.

Hey Brian,

I'll be knocking on your door so-to-speak when I run out of this great old stuff (that'll be sooner than I think).

Your reproduction boards are superb in and of themselves.
Nice that you chimed in.

This board is now getting a complete component install with all NOS mustards, NOS AB carbon comps, Lemco caps, BC caps.

It will be for sale on the forum this week coming.

Pics to follow soon.
