There's a hole in the chassis with wires coming through from the output transformer; looks like brown, orange, white and black. Orange, white and black go to the jack socket that has loads of tags on. Looks like brown goes to the ring tag of the open-frame socket and so to chassis (can you confirm that?). Coming off the socket with all the tags are an orange wire that runs to the open-frame socket and a purple off to a PCB; is that orange wire attached to the same tag as the orange wire from the transformer?

If you can knock up a sketch or get close-ups from various angles, that would help. Do you have a multimeter?

I got a reply from the ex-owner of a combo (Welshman at Vintage Amps) who said that the combo's internal speaker was 16 ohms.
