New Project16B Cathedral
#1

I recently acquired my next project. It's a little rough, but the price was right and I think it'll be a real looker and from what I have read a great performer when done!

I think I am up to speed on the bakelite block condensers, are there any other pitfalls with this set I should be aware of?

It looks to be all there except for the electrolytics clamped into the top of the chassis. The replacements are wired underneath, and appear to be quite old, but the cans are nowhere to be found. Shadow meter is present and intact, as is the dial scale. Water soluble ink on this one?

Just lots of dust and some surface rust. I will post pictures soon.
