I shipped it with the tubes still in because I didn't know if he was comfortable putting them back in. I also packed it like it was headed for a war zone and was not concerned at all.
Fun Fact: The only time I have ever had a problem shipping or receiving an amp was when the tubes were pulled and all arrived broken.

I'm with MEC, I've only ever pulled tubes if requested, since I usually pack for nuclear war, and of the dozen or so amps I've shipped in the past five years, it was the smallest, lightest one that had a problem due to the builder securing the chassis with the shortest screws possible, so the tubes got smashed even though they had been pulled (cool story bro).
But as a former V4 owner, I dimly recall the standby noise, which is more like to be a capacitor I'd think?

Yessssssssss. This has sparked an entire new realm of GAS though... I've had one synth for one afternoon and I'm already fucking addicted.

He said he's been having problems with his enclosures. I got lucky that he had a mag enclosure laying around. It was supposed to take 4-6 weeks and it barely took 3.
I'm so excited. I'm hoping this will be the huge synthy fuzz I've been looking for.
