in the 90's I was in between the amp that had powered the 4X12 combo, an Ampeg G412 transistor, which had died a final death and getting the V-9..so the bogen/multivox was my main rig for awhile

That looks pretty cool Ginger. Those can caps look original, and if they are and you intend to use the amp, they should be replaced with some new stock. Old electrolytic caps aren't vintage or classic, they're just old.

I still get by with my old Ampeg B-25, anything louder I mike up and let the PA do the work ...

I'd still like to get my hands on a good B-15. Garret that set of yours looks great.
