: Yeah I'm in the Seattle 'Burbs. I'll give him a call. I plan on doing some of the work myself, but I'd like a pro to put it in reasonable conditions before I dive in.

Old Sunn Guy;
John is right! Andy Marshall is great. If you are in Seattle, come by the Greater Seattle Vintage Guitar Show being held on Sunday April 23rd at the Eagles Hall on Corson Ave. S. in Georgetown. I'll have a booth with several Sunn tube amps that I've restored. I can also tell you where to get tubes (New Sensor), caps (Antique Electronic Supply) and pots (New Sensor and AES are both good) for Sunn amps. If you can't get repro vinyl from Fender, I found that 80's vintage Vox Vinyde is a very close match. I had to make a repro back for a 1967 Sonic 1-40 speaker cab and covered it with Vox material. It's side-by-side with the original material and you have to look VERY close to see the difference.
Hope to see you at the show!
