It comes off very easy with and straight exacto blade. And will look a hell of a lot better.
Thanks. I will get one and try it.

nice coils
I have a couple of observations:
How are you going to support two of those caps? The ones sitting furter from the edge of that board
and
how are you planning on adjusting those multi-turn pots?
Anyone got suggestions for quality, reasonably priced RCA jacks and binding posts?
I'd like some solid, like solid copper, etc., but I'm not paying $80 a pair like the boutique rip-off companies are charging.
Considering these:

$67 for 4, with 25% off right now.
Would you think that the sound of your B2 will be "better" with new solid copper CINCH jack ? There will be much cheaper parts with same result !

can you explain us why you bypass your big cap with a 0,1µF capacitor ?
No, I don't. I just want quality jacks. Suggestions are welcome!
I would not use uninsulated binding posts, too risky, especially with the V-Fets being so precious...
Nope, but I did with a C-4Have you experienced this on the B-2 board?
Because I've done it with many Yamaha integrated and power amps and the PCB / white lettering is completely unaffected (even if you leave the acetone on it for 15-20mins), they seem to have used a solvent-resistant ink/paint. However I don't have a B-2 so I can't speak for that.
No it doesn't. I use it all the time.I wouln't use acetone, it can damage the board and it's white lettering.
I do a lot of C-4's and it has never damaged the board or silkscreen.Nope, but I did with a C-4
I don't know if further mechanical support will be needed,

I said it can and it did at one of my C-4's. Bad luck I guessNo it doesn't. I use it all the time.
Great tip, thanks. There's some of that woman stuff laying around here alsoYamaha silk screen is really good, especially the old stuff on phenolic PCBs. It doesn't come off.
I use acetone/cotton ball/guitar pick (doesn't scratch) on phenolic boards and on fibreglass boards and nail polish remover (acetone based) which has a tiny bit of almond oil in it. Why you ask? It doesn't leave the brown phenolic leached out and white/dusty looking when it dries. I discovered it when I stole my GF's nail polish remover one day when I'd left the lid off my acetone and it was all evaporated...
