Update on this French Provincial

Hi all, took alittle sabbatical from VK, just wanted to update this set I picked up a couple of months ago. The pictures I took today don't really do it justice, it came out real nice, replaced a vdr in the vertical, acouple power supply caps and after I re-installed it the horizontal centering pot started smoking, put a new one in, thanks Dave, and also replaced the on/off pot, alittle tricky on a combo because of a speaker switch. The end result was this. The stereo seems to have gotten alot of use in its lifetime, I replaced all of the electrolytics in it except for two 10mfd coupling caps that ended up being the problem, some kind of Murphys law, now I am going to build a den/library in my basement so I can justify another TV in the house. Cheers, thanks to the guys that were helpful and encouraging here, Bruce
