Looking at the three amps based on the #002 amp the first thing I noticed was the tube count one had four pre-amp valves another had six pre-amp amp valves while Aaron's amp had seven pre-amp valves. I also noticed that only one amp used an inductor for the filters.

I had a look at the Ceriatone amp, it has five pre-amp tubes and appears to have an inductor as there are two small transformers on the chassis.

From what we know which of the #002 amps can we rule out, they can't all be correct.

They are all custom SSS amps, an interpretation of the builder.

So we don't have pictures or an accurate circuit diagram?

I thought I had something and this was it, pretty pitiful eh! :cry:

EDIT: I've noticed the closed thing we have is the Ceriatone SSS circuit.

Allynmey could tell you the Heyboer transformer set to order. It should be in this site somewhere.

Here is the link about the Mark K mods.

MK mod is described here:
http://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7665
and it basically consists of:
"Replace the two .02uF PI Caps with .047uF OD's
Replace the two 220K PI>power tube grid/bias resistors to 100K
Change the V2 Plate resistor from 100K to 220K

There you go. Bias it a little hot."
Power tubes used are 5881.
