Pretty nice rig. $350 may be a tad high, but where are you going to find a nicer one?

I like it! I never know what amp is in VM stuff. PP 6V6, PP 6BQ5, or single ended 6BQ5. Gary would know. :)

What about the price, Bill? Would you give that much for one?

I'm working on one and it has a SE 6BQ5 stereo amp with a 6EU7 preamp. The tuner is a decent piece with 12AX7/6C4 mpx circuit and compared to some others this age, is built well. I have two spare tuners, all model 1465.
