All I can say is that Rich Koerner is a man with quite staggering skill and patience.

:eek:

Unlike the moron who hacked that amp.

I must admit I probably wouldn't even have attempted to restore that board - I would just have binned it and replaced it with one from a donor amp - either another one with even worse damage, eg to the chassis itself (they do exist unfortunately :mad: ) or a metal-casing Master PA model. Those things are a godsend, they have almost no commercial value even in full working order, but they have identical components (and even the main board) to the normal guitar, bass and 'head' PA models of the same periods.

But I wouldn't even scrap or butcher a totally stock, nice clean example of one of those. Luckily most are in poor condition anyway and not worth saving...
