On the Ampeg... My friend Steve had two of those heads and the matching six
foot speaker cabinets... I'm glad you know about them because I have been

ever been beside two of them ripping... you know all too well they

Yeah my friend Steve had two and used them for lead guitar...When he was home
he had both of them against the wall in his 10x12 bedroom... He was big into
blues... I remember one after noon me showing him 'The Bluegrass tune Wild
Wood flower' using them... The entire neighborhood thought
Osss... I forgot this was the AM list... perhaps I could justify the
guitar amp thing by mentioning me using a Class B modulator deck a pair of
5514's in fact as a output amp and using the Fender as a driver...
I use an old military surplus plate transformer for the output transformer...

Awhile ago there was a thread on this or the Tube Collectors list about
the Ampeg SVT and it's use of the 6146.
Six of them with the output rating of 300 watts.
Ah OK - the SVT DID use 6146es for one year - 1969.
All of the ones I ever worked on were the types with 6550s,
Well most of the time when I do operate I do AM... with an old Collins 32V1
in fact. When I must do SSB I use my old NC-183 with a product detector that
I stuffed under the chassis and from there I EQ the audio out to smooth it
out I have to round off the peaks because of my hearing

While your amp has a silver face it is most likely still the original pre CBS
Fender circuit. One of the best all around designs that Fender made. Will work
best with T.S. 5881's as in
