56 PLUS amp

[10thTx]

DaGeezer came up with the HoSo56 amp which I've built.

This is an off shoot of that using a switchable gain stage and on board FX that works well as a master volume.

So I named it the 56 PLUS since it was the HoSo56 plus another gain stage and plus the active on board FX. I thought it was unique enough that it might be worth sharing.

Amp cab needs a handle and the chassis isn't mounted in it yet.

Wow, that looks fun! What did you use for the V1 pentode?

Gut shots?

[10thTx]

5879 pentode for V1.

I'll try to take some gut shots later. It's not that impressive of wiring but the amp is very quiet.

Well, I see that on the schem, man. Was wondering what brand and vintage.

[10thTx]

Sorry, misunderstood the question.

I had to go look and see. It's a Slyvania. I have no idea what vintage? To be honest, I really don't pay much attention to the brand on the 5879's. I haven't found one that stands out above the others so far.
