What an amazing thread! I just picked up one of these last week at a local Savers for $20. After a few DeoxIt treatments it's sounding great! I plan on following along this thread and recapping it at the very least and replacing anything else that may be problematic down the road.
I would love to pick your brain on what replacement transistors/diodes etc that you used along the way. As of now I'm struggling to find equivalents that are in stock at Mouser or Digikey for the power supply.
