In this two part restoration we start out in this video by doing a bench check of the unit and determine what all parts are needed for the restoration. We test the tubes and make decisions on component types to use as well as build a parts list. We do a schematic walkthrough and cover a few tips from Terry DeWick.

This is part of a larger series on two of these amps and their matching C8 & C8-S preamps. I'd recommend also watching these other videos:

Hope you enjoy!
