After hearing a lot of Express and Rocket clips over the last couple of years, I stumbled on this one and it really does it for me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgh3B7RjQPs It is the first clip I've heard that implies that 'Wrecks are more than just lead amps.
Thinking an Express will be my next project. I'd like the capability of using either 6V6 or EL34 power tubes. Is there an OT that would be versatile enough to handle both EL34s and 6V6s at around 400 volts B+? That sound about right there? The handful of clone schematics I have seen usually suggest either tube can be used. I believe Randy modeled his clone after a "Francesca" model.
Thanks in advance, and special thanks to Mr. Fay.

All TWE 6.6K xformers are OK with EL34s as well as 6V6GTs.
