Now that i have lived with this amp a bit and gigged it................. I am still in awe of the responsiveness and tone esp in a live setting. Im now thinkin of getting another, maybe an OTS or an Fm. Just for some thing else.

Thoughts appreciated.

The problem I have with having more than one OTS at the moment is when I play one of them I always feel like Im leaving the other one out Embarrassed Makes me sad.
Maybe ran in stereo they would be less lonesome, but then I would be leaving my 2550 out. Not gonna happen.

I saw a screaming deal on fleabay for an OTS by Marsh amps, the fsx-50 Overlord.  Uses C-tone boards, Mercury PT and Heyboer OT.  Got mine with half power switch, OD trim on back panel, and lift negative feedback switch.  'Bout tore my face off the first time I played through it in a good way a la Marshall-y tone with the negative feedback lifted, more of an effect than with the same feature on the HRM.   Like the HRM, a huge tone palette but can still do the classic smooth oozy D-style sustain.  Running GE blackplate, or Sylvania grayplate 6bg6ga's with adaptors in my OTS, wonderful sounding and once I got the adaptors, 6bg6ga's are affordable, as in cheaper than modern 6l6's with better tone IMHO.

FWIW, got my adaptors off fleabay from a seller named ayumitubes.  they fell apart pretty quickly due to lack of adhesive.  So I got myself some gel style CA glue and reglued them with a more liberal application of the new glue, they have stayed together just fine.  Bias the Sylvania units somewhere between high 30's and low 40's in your D-clone.  Bias the GE blackplates in the low 30's like you would do with el34's.  RCA blackplate 6bg6ga's have the lower wattage plates, I would not use them in a D-clone.

I'm not an Aussie, but I'll jump in here... You mean besides the Dumbleator/C-lator (Tube) and the Klienulator (Solid State)?
