I never tried soldering until I was recovering from a lengthy illness about 15 years ago. I upgraded/repaired a few Dynacos, built 2 Grounded Grid preamps, a Bottlehead preamp and have fixed several solid state components that had various problems that needed some solder work.
I recently purchased a Hafler Transnova 9500 amp with a driver board problem(intermittent crackling in one channel), I am thankful that I have some soldering skills, was able to eliminate the problem by removing excess solder on the board and resoldering more than a few questionable connections. It's a skill that can come in handy. The local repair shop said he couldn't find the problem.
