My M100 looks the same. My M44 has gold traces on the top though.

Here is a good look at mine, #866. Have a good long look at the stock caps and the fluid everywhere. These caps are long overdue for a change, if you are running stock caps this is the kind of stuff that is going to happen. This is the way I received it.....I'll let you see it again after Eric and Matt have a threesome with it. :shock:

I spot some different parts, or revised...whatever you wanna call it.

Look in front of the torroid, I have Yageo 5w.....you have some other style, might be the same specs...maybe not. :hmm:

Your amplifier needs update. Replaced R42, R42A, R43, R43A with 160 Oms 3-5 watts resistors or 15volts supply will fail very soon.
