Hi Rick, I know you have a fondness for the 76. I just brought my srpp 6sn7/76/300b out of the basement, and I was surprised at how good it sounds. As you say, everyone of John's amps (with the webster opts) is unique and a gem.Out of all your amps though, I think those VT52's with the 26 driver is what I would like. I remember them to have a big California type of sound, and that is where they went. Plus the 26 is my favorite tube.
John made a few gold colored amps among which is a 417a/183 amp which has some remarkable qualities. The 417a is a WE tube, and I don't know if that is the reason it has interesting qualities or its the 183. I plan to post about it someday.
I still need to get the digital camera out. I want to share what I have especially with the people who have some.
It's a very interesting dispersion of amps. We all became collectors to some extent.
