were there any?
You know? I have seen pictures of some "silverface" amps with classic stacks and 100K plates. However, some of those amps had a different pre overdrive network. The early 80s amps, blackface, I have seen that had a classic stack all actually had 220K/150K plates and the 150K slope resistor.

Gil,what OD entrance did those amps have?
220K/500pf to ground, 1.2M in series, 33k to ground?
Do you remember if those late silverface amps
already had the feedback loop on the second stage?

I believe I saw pictures of one amp as you described, another amp had something different, and yet there was at least one more with simpley 1 100K trimmer between the clean and OD stages. (at least some of) The silverface amps had a 22 Meg resistor in the fedback loop, as opposed to either 4 x 120 or 2 x 22 Meg there.
