Its in desperate need of a good service and perhaps a new set of valves but I played it for ages last night and its revived my love for it, I normally didn't bother with it and used my little Vox for convenience , it takes forever to warm up and start sounding nice, its hard to dial in at low volumes, but, once its there its really quite lovely.
I have some speaker cloth coming for it from a very generous forum member that will take care of the rip in the existing cloth and I had the pedal cover sand blasted and powder coated a while back so for a 40 odd year old amp its looking quite good for its age. Once its serviced it will be good as new!
The amp is apart again.
The Peavey badge is a lump of aluminium and polished up a bit but its badly scratched so I might have to bring it flat with some wet and dry then polish it again. Getting there!
Test fitted to make sure every thing is coolio. Every thing is indeed coolio.
So, all in all , a couple of Saturdays, a few quits worth of materials, some beer, some more beer, and a half decent looking amp that I can now throw money at to get the electronics all sorted! Happy bunny!
The whole thing looks so much better than I expected given what I thought the wood would be like - very well done .
