I heard the VHT Special 6 is good for modding. Does anyone here own one?

SO FAR it's a resistor. But I need that part in place before I can try to figure out why it fried in the first place.

Well it looks like I dodged a bullet. The parts arrived earlier in the week; today I opened 'er up and started tinkering. I replaced the resistor and the fuse and tightened up all the output tube sockets, then hooked up a speaker and hit the switch. Working like a charm! I played through it for about an hour - no hint of any kind of hiccup. So now it's all back together and has resumed pride of place in my music room. I discovered a new Blues jam not too far from my house last week, so I think I'll take the Bogen for a spin Thursday night.
