Well, when I was having it repaired, I had two choices for techs. One was a guy I didn't know, the other (the guy I chose) was a guy who built custom amps for the music store I worked at. Really nice, quality, class a tube stuff. He had a great reputation. My co-workers recommended him as well. Right after I gave it to him for him to work on. He pulled a vanishing act and didn't show up for about a month and a half (I was PISSED). He was behind on all our stores orders, brought my amp to the store and then disappeared. Our store stopped doing business with him after that. That's why I was iffy on everything. He seemed like such a great choice beforehand.
The preamp section did have little metal covers over the preamp tubes. But that's what the previous owner took pliers to and bent them the fuck up. They currently don't have anything covering them.
I'd like to take it to a new tech, but don't know of anyone now.
