Hello everybody!

I have this interesting looking hybrid guitar amp, called Guyatone Flip 1500/GA 1500 which I could bring into my possession - sadly lacking two of three tubes. Since I came across Guyatone for a label of relatively cheap but nicesounding stuff, I want to have a listen to this thing, it is also very quality looking :p
Now, tubes have not yet crossed my path diywise and I would like to find out, which ones would be fitting...

I found only this schematic on the net ´Flip 2000/MkII´:

The former owner talked about ´probably 6L6 or EL-34´. But I don´t want to fool around with high voltage circuits based on hearsay, so could someone help me out?

Well yes, but it´s just the schem of a closely related unit and though I guess they might be using the same tube setup, I want to get some confirmation
on that, only possible by someone who knows this amp or has access to the 1500er schematic... :(
 
This amp got 2x6L6GC and a 12ax7 in its power section. See reply #6 in this thread:
