About 30 years ago, a friend and I built up this mongo guitar amp, it used 8 of them, two channels, 4 pushpull/parallel in each channel. No reverb, tremelo or fuzz, just clean sound - almost true audio quality.
It was a roughly copied from a Fender Dual Showman, less the "extras" and then made double . Those days, good power iron was available cheap if one was lucky at the electro-surplus stores.
I don't remember all the gory details, but it was pretty conventional circuitry.
Definitely "standard" 6L6s won't cut the mustard here. And forget about 12L6s, 25L6s, 50L6s, they are wittle weenie 2 watters, they just stole the L6 name :twisted: :? :wink:
