Hammond ao-35 PT- It's big but is it 36 Watt big ?
I have a couple of these organ amps and a few extra hammond 6BQ5 OT's. So would the stock monster PT support running 4 6BQ5's and a pair of matching OT's ? It looks like it had to power another chassis in the organ, for it's size. It may be a squeeze in the chassis but if I mount them on top and on edge I don't see a packaging problem... Any thoughts...

I'm not giving a definitive answer, since I haven't had the morning coffee (which usually results in my spewing giberish), but I've seen those PTs used on all sorts of different Hammond cabs with lots of different tube combintations. Too early and too lazy this morning to look them up, but It would not suprise me in the least if it would work.

Plus the 5U4 rectifier tube.
Sorry, but I'll need to leave it as an exercise to you or my fellow tube-nerds here to estimate current requirements, as I have to run off to work.

I never exercise. I just take in those holistic lead and rosin fumes. Rosin is made from pine tree sap (among other things). And who doesn't love trees. Trees are good for you.
I have just gotten the squeal out of my most recent project and posting it on the 18 watt forum. I'm keen to get the 36 watt started. Even though I haven't even played through the 18 yet. Does this sound like a compulsion ?
Unchained- I don't think I have any spare Hammond OT's , sorry, I may have other old iron though.
