Question: Epoxy and my 40th Anniversary Ray

Question: Epoxy and my 40th Anniversary Ray

I was showing off my 40th Anniversary Stingray on TB, and got questions why the circuit board is covered in/with epoxy.
I just though it was cool of EB to history accurate do the epoxy, but I do not know if there are any other more technical reasons why this solution was chosen.

Anyone?

I have some issues with the volume pot that’s why I opened the cavity to check if I could notice anything wrong.
