No Name Tube Amp & Turntable DIY?

I've been into electronics all my life (i'm 57).
Very well built. Does anyone have any idea if these are home built or kits?
Thanks for any help!!

I noticed it has a 6FG6 tube at each end for power level which I think is really cool! I unscrewed a top off of the left black square piece & it has a transformer (see pictures). Other tubes are 8BQ5's & 12AX7's.

That explains a lot as he used white ceramic sockets & paid attention to detail. Thanks you for your comments! Carrol

The underside appears to be complex has a potential mix of newer and older elements. That said- Given the complete lack of badging and the potential mix of the components I would go with a prototype or a very advanced DIY, It looks a bit too sophisticated to be a kit. There is more guessing in my statement then I usually care to make and would welcome being corrected. e.g. It's a Bottle head piece.
