High voltage jolt Shocking surprise from Danelectro vintage tube guitar amp beware of this hazard

Now I know why they call these Danelectro, they just needed to add cute. A perfect subject for Shock Theater. First one I have worked on, hopefully the last. This is a very unsafely designed amplifier. Easy opportunity for shock due to the weak ground method. They relied on the braid of the preamp rca signal cable to connect the upper and lower chassis grounds. Not knowing that, I received a pretty good shock while performing maintenance on this vintage amp. Lucky for me, I utilize the one hand method when working on energized equipment, so my injury was minor. It could have been much worse. If you own or plan to work on one of these amps, use extreme caution. Add a safety ground runner between the chassis in case that phono plug comes loose. Yes, these old amps can kill!
