The Angela Super Single-Ended amp uses two rectifiers and and two single-ended 6V6 output tubes, with a single 12AX7 preamp.
I built this amp 15 or so years ago, when silver signal wire was a thing.

A great amp for guitar or harp!
Much louder than a Champ, more like a Deluxe on steroids. Smooth, creamy distortion available, starting at about 50% volume. Remove one of the 5Y3 rectifiers* to lower the voltage in the amp and extend the life of the 6V6s; it is a softer sound with less drive and more sag. You can also remove one of the 6V6s* for reduced power.
* It doesn’t matter which one.
