In the 60's people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird , and they take Prozac to make it normal.

2 ECC83 (GT Yugo)
1 EL 34 (Mullard xf2 )
1 GZ 34 (Mullard)

Single ended (EL34/6L6/6550) 8 to 10 watts
note: the original used a 6550
this Prototype sounded best with an EL34

The Prototype Dirty Little Monster that he built was very different from the Original. He described it as a Killer Plexi with Trainwreck clarity and voicing with the master disengaged. Using the master gave it a more JCM 800 flare. This Prototype wasn't as gained out as the Original. There was a trade off more tone and clarity less raw distortion. This would be a great recording amp and takes pedals really well (Menatone Blue Collar was killer combination). There is definite vintage plexi Marshall vibe to this amp. Great amp

Is there any other information on the amp- Schematic, Layout, pics????

Sounds pretty interesting, all of Ken's other amps were push-pull, so this would be something that would be cool to hear...

OK, I didn't search first.... there are several threads asking this exact thing...

But, I still wonder if there is any newly discovered documentation on the amp????
