looking for a daring amp repairman in germany

[fuzzking]

A friend of mine bought this:





It's a 35 W Gretsch 6160 Chet Atkins, and all it produces is hiss.
He contacted the only repairman here in our area, who said he'll never
touch a Gretsch amp again, although he has the schematics.

Anyone in GER who knows someone who could help out?

did he get electrocuted by one?

My guess is they're are simply a huge PITA to work on due to what looks like a separate chassis for the pre/power amp sections and potential rats nest of point to point wiring.

Yeah it really looks quite confusing on the inside.

Cool as shit looking tho...  I'd love to have one broken or not. 

[fuzzking]

It's even nicer in person. Real cool looking thing.

Dirk Baldringer in Leverkusen - www.baldringer.de
Tube Amp Doctor in Worms - www.tubeampdoctor.de
Uli Kurtinat in Köln - www.ulis.com (don't know if he repairs amps, but he's a kind of legend in servicing old guitars)

AFAIK you have to contact Tube Amp Doctor via your local dealer... they're good, they repaired my old Super Champ combo.
