Info on H.H. Scott Stereomaster


I was hoping someone could help me with information regarding the value of the following:

H.H. Scott Stereomaster
Type 299 Amplifier
Type 350 Wideband Multiplex Stereo Tuner

Both have wood housing (top and sides), and gold-tone front instrument plates of indeterminate metallurgy. They are matched as to size and overall appearance, but the branding/labeling is not identical, so they may have been manufactured in different years. But, again, close. I'd guess about 1960. General exterior condition: fair to poor, but certainly restorable. Working condition: unknown, but I may get curious and fire them up if I get a chance. I'm fairly sure they will require extensive electrical overhaul prior to being put back into any practical service, if any.

The tuner is missing the main (tuning) control knob, and the amp is missing one knob.

Thanks for your help!

Check out the Scott website (www.hhscott.com) for some really good information on your Scott pieces.
You can keep an eye out on this site and on Ebay, for an idea on what your pieces might be worth.
I would definately be careful if you are thinking of plugging these pieces in. They should be fired up on a variac with the voltage brought up gradually. There is a lot of good restoration advice on the Scott sight, including some safety recommendations.
If they were restored and in pretty good shape they might be worth some money. But, in original condition, maybe $150.00 apiece, or what the market will bear.
Hope that helps.
