Aside from doing the obvious refreshment of tubes & caps on vintage amps, I think some new rubber shoes is a pretty acceptable 'mod' to do.. what do you think?
First... get the gunk out... looks like an old bit of masking tape
The old & the new... Adam Hall rubber
Sitting pretty
Some dweeb decided to paint something near this head without protecting it from splatter drops... I used a hypodermic needle to slide under the dried paint and lift it off without damaging the tolex (don't worry, I got the needle from an emergency 1st aid travel kit I had lying around )

A functional improvement, I'm sure. Just hang onto all the old parts in case you ever want to sell it and some "purist" comes along .ak-47 wrote: I think some new rubber shoes is a pretty acceptable 'mod' to do.. what do you think?

Re: Maintenance
great job!
I replace the rubber feet on all of mine that need them.

Thanks, I just like the sense of stability it gives and imagine it becomes a more effective 'extension' of the cab... and yep, I have my box of bits I will never throw out
Re: Maintenance
Hey,
I managed to pick up a 74 DR103 not too long ago and it also could do with some new feet.
What size should I be going for?
Is it the Adam Hall 4907?
Cheers,
Tom

Re: Maintenance
Yep, pretty sure it is the 4907 but I can't find the receipt.. What do you guys use on the Hi-Tones Doc?
