Did you end up getting the transformers coated? Would help in the longer term with protection against corrosion.

I've decided you should get switches like these

You wouldn't think a switch could be sexy, but here it is!

[sprocket123]

The Sweet and Steve Priest in particular is the main reason that I wanted to play bass. He made me realise that bass players didn't have to skulk around at the back of the stage with long greasy hair and an unkempt beard while exuding less charisma then your average roadie.

What a fantastic idea! Charic you are THE MAN! If only I had the inteligence to build one of these valve amps one of those switches would be a must have! I'd dearly love to build my own rig......
