<p>I've just got a '74 Hiwatt that is in really good original condition, except for where someone has "bypassed" the Bulgin mains socket inside the chassis with a fixed cable. A worse, unsafe mess you couldn't imagine, with taped off wires, connector bocks and all covered in electrical tape ... and it all sitting on the output valve sockets / wiring.</p><p>It can't be left as it is, so ........ </p><p>I could get a 3 pin Bulgin connector (plenty on eBay ... though £30 odd quid for NOS (Lol!)) and make a mains lead for it and re-instate the Bulgin socket (I've got a Bulgin Cable in my old Marshall and it seems perfectly safe to me!).</p><p>Or should I just have the Bulgin out and replace with a TAD Bulgin / IEC replacement socket? Don't imagine it will hurt the value as it's a PA head.</p><p><br></p>
