Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

I think what you are failing to understand is the fact that needs more power

I rebuilt his Sherwood and he loves it and I was hoping he would keep it for a second amp but he wants to just have more power for the ESLS.
You often mention that you don't like the 6L6 based amps but there are many variants of the tube such as the EL37 or even a KT66s.In the Mc60s,he will have a few choices of 6550s and KT88s but Mac amps can made into sonic marvels rebuilt properly..THe new way of doing it doesn't hurt the value anymore as long as you don't drill holes in them..Here is the way I do an Mc60..This way you keep the original look and you can always put it back to original with no physical harm.
