Man,  you did a GREAT job with that!  It really looks good. I think you'll be impressed with the bass response from those 6BM8 tubes.

Very nice!

A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

Check V2 pin 3. Looks like you have used a 150K resistor rather than 1.5K resistor. If so, that's gonna make for a very quiet amp.
