 Belonging to a regular customer, Jerry, who lives a long way south of Nottingham, happened to be up here on guitar business and had dropped in to see if I could sort out a “frying” on his little baby?

Bit of an “overkill” on the speaker cable here!

This one had had numerous components already changed in the past, using PCB (radial) components, which I don’t think “look the part”. Nevertheless they still work. I found the crackle virtually straight away: the 56k plate resistor on the HT side of the splitter was noisy. I changed the 100k next to it too whilst I was there. Job sorted!
