            I got to spend some alone time with it tonight, replaced V1 with a brand new Mullard. It's hotter for sure.
            The amp was sounding a bit brittle, after new tube, rebias of power tubes (set them a touch higher) and some adjustments here and there she is sounding much better indeed. I am starting to really like this amp.
            It has some features that I really like, for instance the effects loop is set up to be jumpered with just a switch, to add a solo boost it's adjustable with knobs on back of the amp. But there's also a second master volume switch in the footswitch that you can use as a solo boost or a whole other volume setting. I can see cool uses for that playing live.
            There's a switch hidden inside the amp, unlabeled, had to look into it whereas given the nature of crappy tubes this switch does some sort of magical emulation of a tube sound or something... Anyhow it was switched on, and I switched it off because I just put brand new tubes in it.
            Sounds better now.


            It will take any number of different power tubes, kt66 or kt77, el34, 6l6 , 6550, 6v6 etc.

            Reverb is useable, much more so than any other reverb I've ever used, sounds very natural for some reason.

            Anyhow, just sharing info about this amp, as I go through it.

              After you've had it a while, you should try some KT-77's in it.
