This was redone by Bob in the late 80's thereabouts just before he started his commercial offerings.
The input tube is changed to a 6hk5 and sounds better than any stock 8b can achieve
Selling for a friend that lost interest and it sat in a closet more than 10 years.
I ran it up with a Variac/ checked everything and listened to it on my Quads and it is exceptional and super quiet!
Serial #is 10001 !!! Rare
2700$+ship. and no international shipping 60 lbs double boxed and insured
