In this video:
We finish out our restoration of the Crate G80XL Guitar Amplifier. It was an absolute pleasure bringing this amp back to original factory sound (or as much as possible) while also eliminating several issues (audio cutout and over driving the power transistors). I'll also do final Channel B and A measurements this time including test equipment displayed in the recording in hope to make it easier to see the adjustments and measurements. Also, please stay for the message during the outro.
