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

Thanks Sluckey, i had thoughts of flicking the ELs as both sets of tubes sounded pretty much the same (ELs sounded a little sharper) and the 6V6 were able to handle the higher voltages, but i thought "what the hell i'll just leave it as is and see what happens". Thanks
