This one may have had the two 12Z3 tubes at one time. The chassis has a hole where a socket was. The line cord has been replaced, and dropping resistors have been added. The original speaker has been replaced with a PM type. It has a frame type filter choke added under the chassis. My only concern is the B+ seems to high. The choke only has 270 ohms resistance. No other diveder resistors. When I disconnect the heater string, and the B+ starts to fall, the set plays louder, and performance seems better before it dies.
