This Vibroverb came in recently and needed some attention. Off it went to our tech, who really is one of the best out there. He's been at it since the early 70's where he started out professionally at Wurlitzer in Boston.
The amp came to me as "all original", which it unfortunately wasn't. The output transformer was for a Bandmaster or similar circuit, so we replaced it with a high-quality Mercury Magnetics Tone Clone. The other transformers are original.
The filter caps had been replaced, but with the cheapest ones available. We upgraded them. Tubes had issues, so they were replaced where needed.
The baffle is changed. I suppose the JBL speaker maybe took the original one out. The original grille cloth was applied to it, and the logo is original as well. A grounded power cable has been added, and an original footswitch is included.
The amp functions perfectly and sounds amazing. There is one dent in the chassis, visible on the faceplate. There has been a bit of routine maintenance performed across the circuit. The cabinet, speaker, legs, handle, corners, backplates and everything else not mentioned above is original.
