PD Amps - Gruca signature 18 wat amp

[PDguitar]

I want to show you the amp what I made 1.5 years ago. I designed this amp for a great musician Emil Gruca. This is a very simple amp: preamp 1xEcc83, inverter 1xEcc83, power amplifier 2xEL84M (A military-spec version of the standard Sovtek EL84. The lamp is a continuation of the well-known 6P14P-EW), power suplay Ez81. Tonestack: Bass, Treble, two switchable Gain and Volume, British/Usa switch, power attenuator pot, tube effects Loop, Eminence v12 speaker.

Yesterday Emil recorded new song. You can hear this amp in guitar and bass tracks

Sounds and looks good ! :-)

What does the British/USA switch do ? Cathode-/fixed Bias ?, tonestack ? ...

[PDguitar]

British / usa switch changes tonestack components and location, Catode/ fixed Bias is switchable with power suplay. 3 positions standby switch changes power suplay and Bias, I mean - catode bias - solid state power suplay / standby off / fixed bias - tube power suplay.
