Man, I like the way that sounds. Has that steroidal blackface deluxe thing happening.
Cool clip.

Thanks RH, the mp3 clip doesn't reproduce the bass this amp has, it does the blackface deluxe/tweed bassman feel well at a nice volume level even with the ppimv.

Re: ceriatone expression clips 6v6's
Which OT are you guys using for 2 6V6's in an Express? I'm leaning towards the Toneslut Experimenters with 5200 and 4300 Ohm windings. I suppose that the 6600 Ohm tranny would be more optimum for dual 6V6's, but OTOH I could just change speaker taps.
Also, is the "standard" 6600/5300 OT still available? I don't see it listed on the Toneslut order page.
The JJ 6V6 and KT-77 are 2 of my favorites for current production tubes and I would like to be able to use both along with EL-34's.
Thanks!

i use an old 35 w Pacific tranny lifted from a Western Electric P.A. but don't remember the specifics...works well.

"If I might suggest, I have Vintage Spec trannies in stock that are a
match to the ones in Franchesca. That means M19/26 steel instead of the
M27 used in the standards, and 6600 ohm only. They are smoother and less aggressive than the standard, and the trade is a little more sustain and harmonic feedback that makes an Express such a fun amp."
I used the the vintage transformer to replace my ceriatone ot per the recommendation from TS.
