    Not only is the conversion successful, The finish work (intangibles) are clean, and laid out with functionality, and ease of use completely considered. Your new assistant is very grateful for a second chance at life. Well done as always, Terry.

    Be sure to get those cats fixed. For years I didn't get my barn cats fixed, then each springtime and fall I would have more kittens than I could keep. Some shelters have discounted or subsidized spaying services, and some spay them for free.

    Don’t think I’ve ever heard a Masco conversion that didn’t sound great! Those things are begging to be guitar amps!

    Masco made some great amps. Some of them even sound great with guitar as/is. Without a conversion that is. Nice work Terry!

    MASCO's are pretty rock solid amps. Hard to go wrong with a vintage MASCO!

    I think kitty would rather see a Tung-Sol in that slot, rather than that JJ or whatever it is! She is giving a hard look over ... Portughoul! Early Halloween season! Little amp sounds real sweet!

    Great vid! I recapped one of these a few years back that had been converted. Nice little amp, this is only the second one I have seen.

    Terry, I've got a "more modern" Champ, a "Super Champ", but though it is a bit higher output (nominal 15 W, actually more likely somewhere around 8 W (it is driven by a 12Ax7 preamp, and a couple of 6V6 tubes in the circuit.) But it was loud enough for a small club, and considerably lighter than the old rig I used to haul. And I no longer gig, so the weight isn't an issue any more.

    How many watts is snozeramous? I have an old shortwave receiver that I want to replace the filter can. I have a 60 watt iron but it wasn't up to the task. I bought a 100 watt iron recently but haven't tried it yet. I see there is a 175 watt iron for sale. Just wondering.

      I picked up a black Weller gun, which is normally 100/140 watts, but this thing is bigger and 200/240 watts. I use a short piece of # 12 solid copper wire as a tip and can solder to the middle of a chassis with it. It helps if you have separate flux in a bottle so you can add extra and of course everything has to be freshly cleaned. I was lucky and got the big gun for $5 at a flea market. I noticed it looked larger than the normal low power guns.

    I would have gone with a rocker switch for that 4 to 8 ohms switch , don’t like the toggle for that application.

    Hey Terry,
    Always enjoy your videos, I'm also a cat lover. May I ask what is the wattage of snozeramous?

    Hey uh i have a important question to ask you. How can you tell what the micro ferrot is on the old wax caps? I have a philco radio from 1938 the model is 38-8 i have no clue what to buy to replace the old caps with. Same for the one thing with the humming of the radio.
    Thank you.
