It is riveted, to discourage inquiry.
One switch IIRC simply adds another positive wire to the oil cap.
Interesting. I had posted how the ratio of positive cross section to ground cross section can alter tonal balance. More positive: brighter. More negative: more bass.
You can experiment with different gauges, but I prefer to simple add and subtract strands. 2 to 1 too much? Try 3 to 2. Fewer strands do sound better but you can calculate cross sectional area on an experental basis easier.
Of course YMMV

I removed the rivets and replaced them with screws. The parts are hardwired with a complicated wiring scheme via basic hook-up wire and what looks like a short length of 12 AWG fine strand count speaker wire. I've considered upgrading the wiring, but Mike likely selected the specific wires by ear, so I do not wish to alter any tuning he may have intended. The only modifications I've done at this point is replace the stock Schurter IEC inlet with an Oyaide Power Inlet R IEC inlet, replace the stock X2 safety cap with a WIMA MP3-X2, replace the stock Schurter snap-in AC receptacle with the Neutrik NAC3MP-HC powerCON 32A AC jack, and replace the stock 3M Bumpon feet with a set of Herbie's Audio Lab Tenderfoot feet.
That's right you changed to neutrik...
IIRC Vans Evers used OHFC wire throughout.
