I did a rewire on a 50w Red Bear just yesterday to change 6n2p tubes to 12ax7 and a fresh set of 6L6s. It gave the amp quite a bit more headroom but also a bit noisier.
I had to look several times before figuring out the filter/bias network.
The solder they used has a high lead content which kept fouling my solder sucker, and the boards on the 3 I've seen did not have the flux cleaned after assembly. I'll bet this would drive the "greenies" insane!

If it don't get hot and glow, I don't want it !
