Going down to Va. to pick up a 400 from AK'er Analog Addict.
Serial 48291 U
the previous owner started to work on it but bailed on it from what i understand.
Cosmetically it's in very good shape, except for the dust. So it'll get the usual overhaul, Tubes gone over and replaced as necessary, bias and power supply upgrade and mods, new caps thru out, de-emphasis resistors, new Can caps, Grid return and coupling caps, screen resistors, cathode resistors, and if I can make head and tails, some if not all of Dave's mods to it as detailed in the Upgrading the 400 thread. and ckeelers led's for the dial lamps.
Some pics............
Front Panel looks really good. And I AM NOT going to mess with the Dial Glass.
Needs some Dusting and light clean and polish
The 2 caps already in will get replaced with a full set of new cans.
Late version
Right now until the grass cutting season opens up, it's gonna get stripped and cleaned, tape off the trannies, and paint them. Couple cans of neverdull. Summer project. Then find a front loader console in Modern similar
to ODYFAEL's Premiere. Or see about a custom case like this one...
