Restoration complete (DR505 w/pix)

Post by thames »

Hello,

First of all, thank you all fellows here for your precious help, in particular MHuss but others too.
The amp is a '79 DR505, which has made its way around the globe sometime ago.... tube fx loop, non-"canadian" gain mod, tweaked values.... well.

That looks awesome. I wonder what people are thinking when they leave the inside of a hiwatt like your first photo
