I have an amp circuit board I'm trying to repair but the colors on a resistor seem bad and I can't match up the resistor. It seems like it has an orange band. I was just poking around trying to find visible problems and this resistor looked like it had been repaired (I am the only owner of this amp and it was new when I bought it). It had a very thin section and just snapped off at the stem. Anyway, it measures 146 ohms, doesn't look (otherwise) fried. Another resistor near it is 96 ohms and the colors are also pretty bad, but with it I can at least make out that it's a 100 ohm resistor.
Can you guess the colors? It looks like the tolerance band is silver or gray. (First two photos). Is it common for colors to be this bad?
I happen to have another of the same amp, so I opened it up and both of those resistors (third photo) are the same and the colors much more obvious, and they are 100 ohm (they both read 96 ohms).
What reason might the manufacturer repair the amp in the factory and up the resistor by 50 ohms?
