Thank you guys, problem (sort of) solved. The PSU is fine, I drove the
SB Classic with it and all was good. Voltage measured at 4.91 which is
within limits.

With the helpful advice from John Swenson's article from the link posted
by bpa, I managed to open the unit quite easily. Most difficult part was
find drivers that matched the Touch's screws (T10 Torque driver for the
foot, small Posidrive for the casing screws) and looked in dreaded fear
at the inside. While still pondering the best way forward, I had one of
my rear brainwaves which was to plug the PSU in and try measure the
voltage whilst on load. Easier said than done, I had not yet
disconnected the PC Flexicables nor removed the PCB board and while
still looking for a suitable voltage measuring point I noticed the unit
had come back to life again. I gently shook the unit, probed to find a
possible dry joint (yes, as if that is even possible!) and it remained
on.

Put it all back together and listening to Boss Radio now as I type this
:)

So although I cannot report on what the problem is/was, as long as it is
working I am quite happy!

I just love this unit in spite of its quirks:   (See from reply #37
onwards)
