Sorry that I forgot that you were the guy that had a tank rebuilt at Accutonics. Are you still happy with the sound of that tank?

I would think that what you said about the two amps' histories is pretty much what I was trying to say. The two amps have had different lives and the two tanks work differently. Filth is not a sign of road use and mechanical stress.

I bought an early Frankie head and cab from a guy that played bass in a lounge band for something like 30 years. It sat pretty much unmoved for most of that time in a smokey, smelly club. It was filthy, but it rarely was moved anywhere.

I would guess that the heat and humidity of Florida could be a cause of the deterioration of the foam dampners.
