Got an old Fender Taurus solid state amp to work on here. Got it all fixed up and went to turn it on. From what I have read about all these old Fender solid state amps I expected it to just sound terrible. To my surprise it sounded absolutely fantastic!! It was absolutely silent with nearly no hum at all. It is a great clean sounding amp and I felt a need to post something to let other people out there know that it is not a terrible sounding amp. Of course someone had removed the JBL speakers so I had some old Fender 10" speakers waiting for just this problem. Somebody actually had installed car stereo speakers in the thing! :trouble Also, the PCB board had leftover flux residue all over that had turned white. Looked like a bird had flown over it and took a dump right inside the amp. Anyway just thought to share this experience about this amp since it is a rare specimen.
