Here we go again….another abortion! Just look at the state of this wiring and the soldering!!



selm9c.jpg

 Yes…….definitely…….another bloody mess!!



selm9d.jpg

Apart from the power transformers’ crap wiring; it was duff anyway! So….off it came, and a complete strip-out of all the junk wiring followed.

Now…doesn’t this just look so nice now…..all finished.

What a lovely job of the re-wind….though I say it myself!

And I think I can say the same for the re-wiring too. Amazingly enough, some of the de-coupling caps were actually fine and not leaking at all…..very unusual!




selm9h.jpg

Unfortunately, I couldn’t say the same for some of the pre-amp caps.






selm9i.jpg

Both units completely finished and ready to make some good sounds!


selm9j.jpg

Not the original speaker of course, but I was told by the amp's owner that she sounds stunning……That’s good-enough for me!
