Modded 68 Plexi

so I bought a 68 plexi and I opened it up and saw this


This guy is thought to be the antichrist at Plexi Palace I posted it over there too but the Admin has to approve my thread before its viewable.
It's been boogered up pretty good (the Duct Tape Insulation is a nice touch) but I'm gonna restore it to the original circuit.
Here's a link to all the pics

That couldn't have been advertised as stock.

No I knew it was modded. I bought it from a friend who's had it in storage for the last 15 years

Didn't this guy mod amps for Frank Marino? To each their own, but I hate to see a vintage piece hacked up.

The EQ is all jacked up. Basically this amp has 1 good tone. All the bass is sucked out of it which is fine if you like that kind of tone.

No no videos, I'm in the process of stripping out all of the mod and ordering replacement parts
