I've got a couple Seeburgs.
An M100B that's been in the family since 1964 and a Q100 SH that I picked up earlier this year.

The Q100 has an SHFA1 amp (should be an SHFA2 but they are similar) I've recapped this miserable beast and it still sounds terrible.

It's the most convoluted Amp I've ever seen and hard to troubleshoot (for me at least) and it uses odd and expensive output tubes.
I'm seriously thinking about replacing it with a Stereo 6V6 P-P amp from a Magnavox of the same vintage, it'd require a few mods to the Amp like changing it to a 5U4 rectifier (to retain the B+ shutoff) and adding a Preamp for the magnetic cartridge but I bet it'd sound terrific!
