both the 6G15 and the silverface schematic are on ampwares.com - they
differ quite a lot, SF has a preamp tube more, to begin with.
the 6V6 and 6K6 thing shouldn't be that important, the new reissues
that ARE very close to 6G15 come with a 6v6 too - just an
availability issue. and I understand that the 6K6 doesn't sound
better for everyone (it does for me tho)
I've heard people put the SF reverb tanks down like crap, and I've
heard people rave about them. never heard or played one myself. Let
us know how you like it!
