I love that whole series! A former coworker just gave me the "small" combo version of that amp (small being a very relative term but it's the B100-115SE II). The pots need cleaning, but it's a really nice sounding amp.

Mine needs a pilot light jewel, any thoughts on a source?

Man, they sure don't make Marshalls like they used to (my point of reference being '60s Marshalls).

Interesting... didn't expect to see socketed DIPs in a new amp.

I've mentioned serviceability many times, it's not just idle words.

I like this concept!

Bit surprised, given that most everything has moved to SMT, though I like sockets in part because it allows using something like the ADA4627-1 instead of more pedestrian op amps.
