Hi Rick,
wow! that sounds like a tight fit...been there, done that too. I

Re: Amps for jazz sound
The power supply on my Mini-Brute II (1970s) blew. The tech said it was a
common problem with Polytones. Rectifier, I think.

Re: Amps for jazz sound
I read that Polytones have had issues with the power supplies on some
models - does anybody have any experience with this.

If you're still young and strong, and don't mind buying tubes... it's pretty tough to beat a nice
Twin. The 65' Twin reissuse is a lot of amp for the money. Otherwise, many love lighter solid

Re: Amp restoration
Hi Brad,
I'm betting you can find someone in NYC to restore your amp, but if not, I do restorations, but I'm in Philly.
Those amps are not too common, have you had it a long time?
Good luck and all
