VTL Stereo 50

Hi there,
Does everybody know what tubes the VTL Stereo 50 originally
come from the factory? I have a retubed one and even the
original circuit is modified. I'm also looking for
shematics or service manual for this amp, however as soon
as I'll have time I'll draw it myself, since VTL doesn't
help. Now it has 4 Sovtek 5881WXT for power and 4 JJ
ECC81 for the line amp.
Thank
Balazs

for sale. So I'm a bit confused by the vtl model numbering.
Anyway the my need for the service manual is getting
urgent. I want to bring it back to it's original condition.
Any help will be wellcomed.

I have read in some blogs that the original tubes are the 807`s? Yours Truly Ernest

I am the person who mentioned the 807`s, I just recieved the VTL Stereo 50 this evening and what a beautiful restoration. Its Looks better than one that just came off the factory floor by at least 50%. I can`t believe my eyes. Even the pic`s on the Canuckaudiomart although very good can not do it justice. Now to the matter at hand my amp uses the 6L6 GC my tubes are new it also has the 4 12at7`s all tubes are JJ`s. That still does not change the fact of course that a number of different tubes can work and as everyone know`s the 6L6 GC is used in a lot of Guitar amp`s. Yours Truly Ernest
