Description: Vibroverb 6G16 plus EF86 normal channel. The Good + original schumacher reverb and output transformer. + Lower voltage power transformer for more overdrive + Normal channel has a tube added, its right after the input. A 12ax7 wired as a cathode follower, then to the tone stack, then to a EF86, then on to the Phase inverter and output section ( This represents the normal channel) You will need a low noise EF86 for the normal channel to work. The Bad - it needs a reverb tank and there is a slight hum when turning the reverb control past about 3. It never bothered me since i dont use tonnes of reverb anyway. You will have to buy an EF86 for the normal channel. The amp works and sounds good. Breakup and overdrive starts early at maybe 3 on the volume control. This amp was designed to have very little clean headroom and lots of overdrive. The EF86 normal channel is a monster and the vibrato channel sounds awesome. The amp is currently loaded with a 5v4g rectifier tube, RCA black plate 6L6GC , a mix of US made 12ax7 tubes, you just need to buy a EF86 tube. I recommend the Genalex Z729 or Philips or Telefunken EF86 tubes. You need a reverb tank for a super reverb, twin reverb, deluxe reverb, or vibroverb, any should work, and a 4 ohm load speaker cabinet to get going. I recommend tube depot for the new reverb tank : Accutronics 4AB3C1B Reverb Tank You may want to troubleshoot the hum in the reverb circuit , its not unplayable, but its not as quiet as i would expect. For this reason, i have decided to list it at a very very reasonable $500 starting bid. The head cabinet is wrapped in leather with a cane grille cloth. Shipping is a best guess, and it may be less and it may be more, i have no idea where the winning bidder lives, and dont know the package details until its packed. So please consider the shipping price an estimate. International bids are welcome thanks to ebays new program. Ill ship fed-ex to the lower 48 US states only. No Hawaii, no Alaska. I think i spent about $2700 to build this about 5 years ago. I have sold several amps on ebay and this is my last one. I hope youll enjoy it as much as i do. Thank you for your interest.
