Secrets of the Vox AC50 - BUSTED BEATLES AMP Repair!

This is a 1965 Large Box Vox AC-50 (Mark 3 OS/072). It was sent to me for repair. (No sound.) These AC-50 amps were used by a host of bands, mainly from the British Invasion, including The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, The Kinks, The Animals, Herman's Hermits, etc. We'll open this one up and examine it thoroughly, change the original electrolytic caps, change the output tubes and bias. And finally, we'll demo it with a Telecaster.
