When I worked on my Mark IV's, there were no boards available. I had to jump one trace with a wire. On my SCA-35 I think it is a newer version. The boards are not that bad. (YMMV!) I am a very gentle solderer. I have not rebuilt the SCA-35. My plan is to start with the original board, and if disaster happens, buy a new one.

Agreed, Dave, each repair should be treated on its own merits, if those boards are/were bad, I would replace them with the many available, pre-stuffed boards on ebay, however, these are fine, have been stripped of the old parts and new, higher-quality parts are being sourced and installed, including new Beltron micalex sockets for the output tubes. Those sockets were obviously in bad shape, however, the board mounted sockets (7199 & 12AX7 on phono board) where just as obviously in great shape and retained. Having done numerous restorations and having excellent Hakko solder/desolder gear, I am confident that these will be better than ever with quality parts and construction.
