Nope. A friend found it and let me know yesterday. Who would think to look?
I was thinking during the rebuild "these screws look EXACTLY like early Roland/Boss screws". Now I know why
Thanks for the kind words. It was a labour-of-love... it would have been a $2000 repair if I was being paid for my time!

Good job and best of luck with it Laurie.....great to see old amps being brought back to life and not ending up as landfill........

Looks very nice!
For about a year and a half I kept my eye on the price of a nice mint one here in a used shop, watching it drop from around $200 to about $130...then one day it had gone
I tested it once, easy to crank up, and a pleasant tone. I simply didn't have space (= my wife would kill me
)
Good luck with it and report back!
