Further to my other thread regarding a custom amp, I've purchased a Bogen HE 10. Tube Complement is 5y3, 6SJ7, 6SL7GT, 2x6v6. Skip Simmons mentions on another forum that this particular amp has pretty awesome potential as a harp amp.
I'm going to have to take it to a tech for the usual mods to the ins/outs, new power cord, check the caps, eliminate NFL, etc. I think I'll likely change the staged tone control to a potentiometer while I'm at it. I also suspect I will have to use a different preamp tube but I'm not familiar with octals. Is it an idea to use an adapter so that I can simply experiment with the 12a_7s that I am familiar with?
Any suggestions as to which I should go to and any other worthwhile mods that I should consider while it's on the bench?
Thank you so much for all your help. It's been very useful.
