Would they produce and amp that wasn't safe for you as it is?
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023? 2. Send it to us.

More study and its a basic early line filter. Intended to clean up the power supply. Something which now is done at the point of generation, but back then wasn't detected until sound equipment came into being.
Perhaps you might remember some amps which gave out a radio signal? Because they picked it up in their circuitry. Such things are rare as rocking horse doodoo now.
Its unlikely now to find a noisy line in the grid. But quite possible in something like a generator if the line filter on that is poor or faulty.
Using: Dell 3268 i3, 8 GB ram, windows 10. Biab version 2017 standard package, no extras.

I agree, no longer needed and you will never see it in a modern tube amplifier.

No reputable designer or company would do it KNOWINGLY but yes they did unwittingly make unsafe amps. And it was almost EVERY amp manufacturer of that era especially when based on 40'5 & 50's designs and before the general use of the "hot, neutral, and grounded" power cord (aka the 3 prong) - with a properly grounded amp folks no longer had to "lift ground" to reduce/eliminate 60 (50) cycle hum .
These early design's were simply done "in a vacuum,", that is they never considered a cascade of failures:
1) a shorted CAP and
2) touching STRINGS, while
3) TOUCHING an ACTUAL ground source or touching a "grounded" Mic or other guitar player whose OWN ground source was at a completely different electrical potential But these designs were not done with malice and the designers were not not lazy or stupid.
Even today a clean and great sounding amp can probably trace their actual design (maybe even the entirety of it, except for some of the power supply) directly back to these OLDER designs, with very little if ANY modification to signal flow path, power supply rectification, or components.

how did your mod go? and while here This is just an UPDATE (and more "dead horse beating") with a video on HOW to do it (while this is a Fender not Gibson it has similar design with a death cap and ground/polarity switch) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cX-DwRWIMU(on this first vid he leaves death cap in and polarity switch in but entire thing has been electrically removed from circuit - he does it for 1) external cosmetics - no gaping hole where switch was and 2) if some idiot wants to revert to original DANGEROUS condition) and to add emphasis on how to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEyScfv1Mgc&t=141sLarry

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
