I did clean the chassis up with a coarse brillo. Lots of nasty solder blobs, carbon and grease removed. Although the sockets looked to be fine, I can't help but think it was better to change them.

I think I will also replace the boards with my own. I'm currently tweaking my designs to better fit the project. Faceplate too... I am dropping the R/J switch from what I had installed on my 1st go round. It sounded more like a torture device with the Marshall style pre. Nothing but Rock mode for that channel. At the same time, I may implement the Bright, Deep and Mid Boost switches for the clean channel. After playing with the 1st for a while, these seem like logical changes.
