I know this is what was being sold in the 1960's but these amps are worth money these days and should be treated with respect . I had a ST20 in that a guy did a bodge job by replacing the safety resistor with a 25 watt type . It had leaky coupling caps so the EL84 were pulling gobs of current , it lasted about a week before the transformer gave out . Those Leak power transformers get REALLY hot , even without the pre hanging off them and like I said it's a marginal part . Nothing like what you claimed at all , sorry mate !Al
