"If you are going to butcher a nice clean vintage unit... I couldn't go along with that."
That's your choice. It's my opinion that stripping the iron off a '60s amplifier and rebuilding it in a modern chassis isn't butchery. Didn't I read somewhere that Jim McShane used to do that with the Cit II amps? Correct me if I'm wrong.
