Geez... you guys are gonna ∗love∗ this:

Dreading the thought of having to trace my way through the current
paths of the circuitry looking for anomalies, I resorted to the time
honoured 'rapid decelleration' repair technique I learned from
watching guitarists fix their Traynor amps onstage (mid set).

I picked the damned thing up about 6 inches off the bench, holding it
nice and level, and dropped it.

Worked like a charm... programs intact and everything. Go figure.

Currently rummaging through the parts bins for audio taper pots... got
some mods to do, don't I?

Thanks for all your help, guys...
