This is it:






Not exactly much room for EQ or even a tonestack on the chassis. As far as the circuit, it only has one preamp tube, then a PI tube, and then the EL84 power tubes.

Its portable and loud, but its small size (chassis AND internal circuit) limits my options :(

I'm going to try other tubes since I accidentally ran the EL84's at 400 volts for about 20-40 minutes without realizing I had done it. They still work, but running them close to 19 watts each may have done some work on their tone HAHA!

I've since resolved my voltage issue and am running them around 290 on the plates :)
