After Steve received the chassis and re-assembled the amp, Steve wrote:
"What the hell did you do to my amp! I plugged it in and the damn thing is scary. It is so powerful now that I'm having to relearn how to play with it. WOW! It is hard to believe it's the same amp. Before the bass was almost non-existent and now it just groans. It sustains the midrange and hi notes with nice feedback potential. Hell, I don't have a clue yet what I'm going to do with it. Thanks for all your hard work. From my point of view it was well worth it." Steve
