Could I use one of these in a PP guitar amp. If so, what are the ratings or where can I find them. If not, It is going to ebay.

IIRC the A470 was rated 70 watts 30 to 15khz so for a regular guitar amp you can push it. You could run a pair of 6550s or KT88s.

I used a DynaClone A470-S (Triode Electronics) to build my TrainWreck Rocket. Supposedly, KF used the real Dynaco 470's for that amp, so it seemed like the best choice. And the results are stellar. My favorite amp so far. It uses 4 EL84's in case you aren't familiar with the Rocket, ala the AC30.
