Looks the same to me. Does it have a spare way on the rec/rep switch? Random thought - did the transistor machine precede the valve version? It could just be that, faced with an intractable problem, Fidelity just "ran home to Mama" and used valves instead, After all, the later Braemar did, didn't it?
