I encourage this, as the owner of a stock (sans knobs)
1967 TNB 50 MKII.
The original power tranny loves high voltage, so I use a step-up transformer and run it around 216-220V, here in the USA.
It really does have its own thing going on...and I prefer its overdrive to any other British amp.
It just sounds raw, and
vintage for lack of a better word.
Not my vid, but this is how they really sound:

The cat's been out of the bag for a while now...but you can still find them for less than the 50W reissues from the big names...and the money goes a lot farther, IMO.
Good luck!

Stop making me lust for a Selmer!
(Or continue but point me to the cheap deals.)
Any word on the mkiii with the brushed aluminum front and reverb?

Solid board I've not played three out four of as well. Seconded. Replace the Mini with a modulation or even better mod delay (Supermoon) and I'd be happy and complying with the rules.

We're just trying to look like we played every pedal on earth.

That's funny, I felt like a dick too putting together this huge pedalboard, so I tried to tone it down a little but then it was still huge.
For years I was working with a board that consisted of:
Visual Sound Visual Volume -> Boss OC-2 -> Homebrew Electronics Big D -> Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man
Sometimes with the occasional MXR Phase 90, Electro Harmonix Small Clone / Small Stone, Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Wah and different Boost pedals thrown in, so I've got some catching up to do I guess.

Knob to pedal ratio is 9000:1.
I could get down with that
