AB763 deluxe reverb pentode/triode

[Rockranger]

Just wondering if anyone could tell me how to install a pentode/triode switch in this amp?

I am aware this may not be a desirable addition to this amp just wanted to try it out, any help would be appreciated!

Perfect, Thanks

I have found the pentode/triode switch to be a useful mod with 6V6's giving two distinct tone/vol changes.  Not so much with 6L6's where I couldn't hear that much of a difference.  Just an FYI, IMO.

With respect, Tubenit

I tried it with KT66 and thought it sounded completely awful... muddy. I removed it.

What would be the appropriate voltage rating for the dpdt switch? I have a mini switch here but I believe the DC rating on it is quite low.

[sluckey]

Use the same rating you would use for a typical standby switch. I definitely would not use a mini switch of any rating. That DPDT Long bat switch that Hoffman sells looks good to me.
