Back when I had M400 #328 I replaced the originalround on/off mains
switch with a flat illuminated rocker type(like on the old Peavey
power amps or Marshall heads)and it looked pretty cool.Granted,not
the original look but in the 80s tron parts were hard to come by.I
also put a standard 1/4" plug on the head block and control
panel,with heavier shielded cable.

Thanks for that contribution ,Charel . Theilluminated rocker switch
as used on the MK-V's and the  JKMK6is still available.
You can choose red,yellow or green (ugh!)color. No blue,sorry.
It's a double-width type, I can post the make & P/N  to our List
if anyone's interested.

Only drawback is reworking that nice M400 brushedalum. panel
for all time.   The orig. red "marker-buoy"lens can be seen from all
angles.
