Gibson EH-160 - Channel 2 preset

Verified · 80/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.

The EH-160 is a pre-war Gibson amp with an AC/DC supply and a field-coil speaker. Two inputs each feed their own 6C5 triode and 500K volume control, mixing into a 6C5 driver with a switched tone capacitor. The driver feeds an interstage transformer that splits the phase for four 25B6 power pentodes in parallel push-pull, biased from a C battery. Four 25Z5 rectifiers and a series heater string let it run without a power transformer.
