Slightly off-topic, but I did some really little boards as Vactrol replacements when they were getting hard to come by.

SSRs are great. :)

Very slick, Mark. Not that it matters, but have you seen this VTL5C1 reissue from XIVE?

It's infuriating.
Sorry u got your got infuriating for me asking a question , But : Marshall made over 25 models under the SERIAL JCM 8oo !
I have NEVER meet a person that say: I have I Mustang , with out saying what year or more specific detail.
Be course A mustang is a SERIAL of cars, same as JCM800 is a SERIAL.

You misunderstood, he's agreeing with you... in other words

It's Infuriating that people use jcm800 instead of the right name just like you said...

Off topic for this thread, but I believe the VLT5C1 will work in the 1960's Gibson amps. They are from XVIVE and are not so easy to find from what I can see. After some hair pulling, I managed to find one for $7 here: https://cabintechglobal.com/vtl5c1xv A mystery vendor if you ask me. Anyhow, thanks for the alert and I was very happy to know these might be available.
