Ooh! Groove Tubes! I'm sold! I bet Aspen Pittman hand-carved them in his own workshop.  :P

The head is parted together. The power amp chassis is from a mid 70's SVT. The preamp chassis is from an earlier version. Magnavox did use old parts stock throughout the 70's, so there is a possibility it's factory stock, but it is most defintiely NOT a late 60's SVT.  It's overpriced, but not as outrightly fraudent as a lot of Craigslist stuff.
