Hey Ken,
I agree that replacing OT is going to be pricey because of the cost of purchasing the amp, part is not too bad but the labor is going to drive it up even more,however, even saying that it is still just a JCM 900, is something I do not understand.. I personally think the JCM 900 amps are great, sure not as popular as the 800 and not as versatile compared to the 2000 series, but the 900s are not bad and they are starting to get the recognition they finally deserve.. Go check out the jcm900 mk3 vs sl-x and take a listen to my sl-x tone..

Cheers,
Charlie
