Any amp techs in here familiar with Red Bears?

Or does anyone know a tech that is, whether or not they're on here? I have an MKE120 that YEARS ago had the treble pot farting out, killing the output. I put in all new pots, with the correct values (even though they're single gang vs the stock junky dual gang) and put in new tube sockets and was working on building a new board to house the giant capacitors but I never finished it.

Just curious if anyone is familiar with them so maybe I can talk to them about finishing up what I started and double check my wiring placement and solder joints.
 
I thought it was just a JCM800 circuit? That's what my tech told me years ago. The only difference between yours and mine is the effects loop, which actually makes me jealous.
 
They basically are, but with way more bass response than any human being needs. I've never felt an amp so ready to shake pictures off the wall as when I was jamming on this amp.
 
I had one, and sent it to Nick K for his Aldrich style mod. The amp is more of a Plexi clone from what I remember. But, the challenge was that they use a different set of preamp tubes, not 12ax7s. So it became a difficult process if I remember right.
