Bob, I love that 80! Great score. For the tone switch, when I removed the caps and tar, it had a cardboard cover surrounding the bottom and sides. The cardboard came off nice. Put the new caps back together inside the cardboard open top box and then cut a business card to shape, painted it flat black, placed it over the top and a few dabs of super glue, there it was. Easy to remove if someone needed to address the cap situation in the future. Wife does not like me to mess with her glue gun!
Also, that speaker I posted looked even worse after I carefully removed the duct tape. Recone time.
