Have an old Rickenbacher amp with no model number that I am trying to id. It has 2- 6K6, 1 6SC7, 1 6SL7, and a metal can (?)in line with the tubes that says Sprague A-8C-18487 after that is the 5V4 rectifier tube. There is also a power transformer it is a Stanton PC-8410 and the output transformer is A-3880 15w. Chicago Standard.
Is it worth it to refurbish? Anyone know a model number ?
Anyone know how it sounded?
Any and all input is appreciated greatly!
Hoping it will make a good blues amp....we'll see I suppose.
Don't know the age but my dad purchased used in the 60's and it already looked old. Came paired with an old Rickenbacker Electro frying pan lap steel w/ bakelite back plate. Too cool...

That can(?) is probably an electrolytic cap or two....
Needs to be replaced, even if you leave the old
one there for appearance.

It might be an early M11 or even an M10.
Here is the M11 Schematic.

6K6 are 6V6 near equivalents.
