I have this amp but it has been modded over time and i think it is not sounding like what it is intended to be. Hence please post circuit diagrams and pics of your amp's interiors for me to correct my amp. I will post pics in a few hours.
My amp features two 6L6 power tubes or may be EL 34's, four ECC83 (12AX7), pre amp tubes
and one GZ34 rectifier tube.

I owned that amp and also two 1962hw’s. You know that certain brand KT66’s will fit in that amp to make it even more authentic.

My 1962RI had KT66’s installed.

I’ve got JJ KT66’s in my early ‘70’s Marshall combo and I still have 1/2 - 3/4 inch of clearance.

I can see some mods done but confess I am really struggling with the quality of your pics for detail.
If you can take some with a camera in detail we can help.

Thank you Neikeel,
I took it to a professional and got it checked out. It works well now. I will open it up again and get pics of the circuit in detail.
It’s running on 6L6Gc tubes and the the GZ34 rectifier tube. Treblish on the first channel and darker with early breakup on the second one.
