Sorry but no, hope somebody does.

Anyway, I'm writing because I never ever saw an amp *so* corroded, and I've had my share.

Only way I can imagine for that happening is it being the house amp in some seaside Restaurant or equivalent, getting the full wave breaking mist or aboard a ship.

Besides a burnt amp, which you will eventually solve, I trust *nothing* there: switches, pots, connectors, jacks, solder, even non epoxy mask covered tracks.

Not so sure it's commercially repairable because of that.

I've seen tube amps stored in a humid basement or leaky attic, in better condition.

Just curious, where did it come from?

EDIT: just googled "Poole , UK"
got:



and of course, now I understand
