These are a pretty simple amp, so what's the issue ?

Can't vouch for accuracy. Also note that the cathode cap on the first triode on another diagram I have seen showed 25uF instead of .68uF noted on this one.

I built a CG using the schematic and layout provided years ago and it is a good amp favored by many at a local guitar builder shop in town. He likes it for Blues or Jazz gigs.

great amps but I don't care for the phase inverter. I wonder if it would respond better with a Vox LTP?

I didn't care for the amp at first but it grew on me and many players loved the amp so I had to be wrong on my opinion. :D
