Some people call model 299 as 299A. All tubes are vintage tubes; all are original Scott tubes except the 12AX7 are vintage USA (Fisher etc). The output are 7189 which are similar to EL84/6BA5, as you may know that they produce wonderful sweet music.
I used a variac to power up to 80 volts. This amp works and both channels produce good full music. Some of the control can get cracking noise in the output. I think that's because of the poor and aged electric contacts on this amp.
The indicator lamps work fine. The new owner is strongly suggested to have this amp gone over by a professional. It may be just fine but I simply don't know. The amp appears to be all original; no mods. See the picture that shows interior circuit.
I spotted the ceramic casing broke off on a component resistor? It may or may not need attention. Physical condition is really great.
Front plate is quite clean, all corners are nice. Bottom plate is present without feet. I have other audio equipment, like.
