I have a "new" amp that is built mostly from very old parts and a design that was around since the 1940's.  It is essentially two Western Electric 133a amplifiers on a single chassis.  It has original Western Electric input and output transformers, original paper in oil capacitors and some very ancient plate-type resistors.  The tubes are also original Western Electric 348a and 349a tubes (very hard to find).  The only modern part is the power transformer.  This is a fantastic sounding amp, assuming one does not need much power (pushpull amp that puts out about 5.5 watts).
