I've built several amps from ground up using all sorts of vintage transformers etc., The el84 ( nobody calls them 6bq5 because the big brother el34 is in the beloved Marshall amp) ...anyway, the el84 is a tube that breaks up very well at club/practice levels. Vox, and Gibson used this tube for all of their best sounding amps. Mesa Boogie used it on the .22 Caliber in a very interesting configuration. In many ways it was the 1st amp to maximize a small design. I paid $30 for the schematic in 86'.
One of my good friends has a custom-specced 50w amp by Goodsell, and it's his "go-to" amp. I was listening to him playing it and it's certainly in a class shared only by very few amps in existence.
The -only- other amp I'd rather have over that particular amp he has, is a stack of Two Rock's with the JM amp head, or SRV's wall of amps he took with him before he died.
great sounding amp! the player brings that out too...great player...
cheers

The headroom on this amp is amazing. We were blown away while making this video.
