Thanks SteveM and ChicagoBill for the replies,
I figured bad caps. I was told it was a 70s model when I bought it, but interesting that it is 60s model. Pretty loud hum/feedback (constant), no change when dials turned. Yes, I do have a couple of multi-meters, and a solder station. I'm an IT guy and practically made a living fixing early Apple spaceship shaped Airport wifi bases, replacing 2 caps there were always bad on them. Also, I don't think the Vibrato ever worked on it, since I've owned it, the reverb did work. I tried to post a link to photo of it, but I need to post a few more times to be able too. It is in very good shape, except previous owner etched his social security number on the face of head and cab. Have the original covers, in good shape too.
