I'm currently assembling a Silvertone 1482 clone, but using 6L6 power tubes, a 15" eminence speaker, with capacitor driven reverb. The reverb circuit is from a Univox U202R, which I copied from one that I had, good sounding verb too. I'm a huge fan of the 1482, and thought it would be fun to do a 6L6 version. In the future, I'll add either a repro 1484 OT, or Thunderbolt OT, we shall see. Should be fun. I'll post photos when it's finished.
