ADM	Re: 2 x 6v6 Design Advice The amp came with 2 12ax7's, 1 12au7 and 2 6v6, it had a crappy little reverb tank which I yanked out. It has no 5 VAC tap (SS rectifiers are used). I was planning on trying incorporating one preamp tube position to put in a effects loop as in TUT, which leaves me with 2 preamp tubes for the voltage gain, phase inverter side of things. I wasn't planning on attempting a Class A thing because I don't wan't to but a new OT and the PT voltages are too high for that.
