Anyway, back to the Stereo 20 - I've just taken a sneaky upskirt shot:
It was apparently sympathetically serviced a couple of years ago by a professional who used a set of paper in oil caps sourced from Classique Sounds, so I'm assuming they are decent. Next time a tube amp literate friend comes around I'll ask them to run a meter over it to make sure all is still within spec (I've no reason to suspect otherwise) - many of the resistors look original, but if it ain't broke, why fix it? All the caps look freshly done to me, and as I understand it those are the things that wear out. Looks nice and clean under there, there's no signs of heat damage anywhere.
