  • 5E3/6L6's dual Bias Switch

    Hey Guys:

    I’m going to start my 2nd hand wired amp. I already completed an 18watt Vox/Marshall that works great very happy with the results.
    I would like to run this by all of you for your valued opinions. I want to try a 5E3/6L6’s w/40watt OT (20watt design) with a switch that will enable toggling from fixed to cathode biasing. I’m not sure if this is workable or desirable to some. The reason I’m attempting this is because I have played through both designs which have their great individual sounds which I love. I would like to combine both in one amp to get both sounds thus making this amp more versatile. Any and all comments are welcome. mazzbob@gmail.com

    Thanks Bob

    I just posted this on another thread but here you go again. (Actual resistor and cap values may need to be varied for your particular build - this circuit is really for 6V6s)
