So, really curious if fixed bias and the 5AR4 might ruin the original mojo?
BTW nice layout, I like yours here much better than TZ ptp one. Nice and tight, the ptp prolly has more wiring than your board

I'm building a 50w because steel players want more wattage and I don't know what affect the changes will have on the 5b6 original tone.
After this one I'm going 70w with KT88's and if no one wants them I'm done trying to satisfy musicians![]()
I know what I like and I'm beginning to understand that only I count.Mark
Still, I can't imaging what steel players get form it, especially the Little Walter straight-up clones. Those octal tweeds had no head room, not that the later ones had much either. Steel and no headroom???The 5b6 was the one that George Fullerton called "possibly the greatest guitar amp we ever made."
