One screw holding the back cover to the amp chassis would only come away by shearing. Squashed out the hank bush and remnant of screw with large G-cramp. Overlay has date 3508 and PbF sign , so early Fender PbF. But I've not even got to the solder side of the board yet. No bushing around the pot spindles so they flop around in the overlarge chassis holes, and one pot broken, paxolin section cracked into 4 sections. One mains fuse pcb yoke is skew. That white "lettraset" lettering on the front panel is wearing off , as usual. I have to take the word from the owner (from new) that its a Junior. 5 or 6 moves with the amp back-face down, on the carpeted boot of a car, was enough to remove the lettering off that plate. IIRC at one time in the UK, that sort of H&S info, mains voltage, fuse rating etc had to be on an etched plate.
