Chassis and front panel were a gift from Steve Marshall, so it is his fault!!
OT started off with original RS Deluxe and the PT an original RS Heavy Duty but I needed those for something else more deserving. The board is a 7 hole one from BrianH that I added my own turrets to. Nearly all the resistors are original RS 10% carbon comps, except for a couple of carbon film Hytabs, the caps are Dubilier made RS. The filter caps reformed NOS. PT made for my by Majestic transformers in Dorset to original RS specs. Pots are all old CTS. I had to wire the input jacks opposite to normal to clear the internal anchor screws and you will notice I tried to use the original wrap around the turrets wiring. I ran out of skinny wire for the output heater between V4 and 5 and for the OT secondary wires.
The OT is a Marstran RS clone as is the 20H choke. I made a bottom board up similar to the one Alex (908ssp) made for his offset years ago.
I elected for Phillips 6L6WGB which I understand are pretty much ruggedised 5881s that can handle higher voltages. The preamp tubes are some early Telefunkens I have been saving for this project. Rectifier is a Mullard labelled as a Miniwatt.
A couple of very quick snaps:

I have tried it tonight with a P90 equipped Martyn Booth through a G12M 2x12 (well my 18w combo speakers) and I have to say I am blown away with how loud and crisp it is with a sweet crunch wham cranked. I little hiss when dimed (less than my AC30s) but no hum at all.
I confess that I have not checked the bias yet but plate voltage is 460v (-48v on the grids) which is a smudge higher than I was shooting for (440-450) but heck it sounds good. I will check and adjust the bias properly when I get time.
Now to sort out a head cab for it. Chris Uff in Norfolk usually comes up with the goods and I have some smooth cloth and RS Vynide saved for it. Looks like frets were bent and used instead of gold trim around the top and bottom of the cab?
