DIY Gtr. amp with 6AR6/6098

Anyone interested in a guitar amp
design using a pair of 6098 industrial
tubes? About 22 watts class-A: or40W
in AB,(more B+,less idle current,and
lower plate load)
Looks like NOS Tungsol 5881, but *different
pinout*!! and slightly different specs,
Currently about $5 each from Triode.
I've got a scan of my rough hand-drawn
schem if anyone wants. The 22W Class A
version sounds nice, but I've got too
much work in the shop to redraw the schem
neatly.
If I contribute the design, perhaps
someone else would CAD it, and the boss
firebottle could tie it behind a red-
-letter link for anyone to d/l.
Shout if you want it.

Steve Morrison	Hi Stephen, I'd be happy to redraw and post your schem if you'd like to email it to me or upload it to ftp.firebottle.com/inbox. --Steve

stephen	Thank you Steve. Expect a gif email attachment in the next day or so. BTW - I should have mentioned that if you ask nicely, Triode have some approx-matched 6098 pairs. - Stephen .
