Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Great Advice...and...

...you may also want to narrow it down to a section and shotgun the section (that is, replace all the parts). Parts are cheap and time is expensive.

Also, examine and reflow the existing solder joints.

Finally, if you're working on a differential amp pair, the transistors should be matched. We had that issue in a Yamaha C-80. Solution required a $30 (ouch) matched pair of FETs if I recall correctly.
