Fixing This Tube Amp Is Gonna Kill Me! 1957 Eico HF-52 • P4 Spray Painting The Cadmium Chassis

Описание: Welcome to part four of the Eico HF-52 tube amplifier series. In parts one through three I stripped this horribly-built amp down to its bare cadmium-plated chassis. And in this episode I attempt to repaint it. As with everything about this amp, major frustration ensued.
