HRVS by Rat Electronics £275
Features:
Dual Output Valves: EL84 and 6L6GC (can use a 6V6) output tubes
'Valve Mix' Rotary Control which allows selection of one valve or the other (EL84 or 6L6GC) or Any 'MIX' Between the Two Valves. Using the 'MIX' Control you can get a Great Bit of 'Brit Crunch' (EL84) mixed in with 'American Clean' (6L6).
RAT Tri-Rec Rectifier uses a Three Position Switch and an 'EZ80' Valve Rectifier, It Integrates Seamlessly into the Circuit and offers 3 different types of Rectification.
Position 1= Standard Silicon Diodes
Position 2= V1, 'EZ80' Valve Running at Half Power, This gives Maximum 'SAG'
Position 3= V2, 'EZ80' Valve running at Full Power, Offers Reduced 'SAG' but maintains the Classic Vintage Valve Rectifier 'Feel'.
OPR Output Power Reduction
'OPR-1' powerscales the power amp section
‘OPR-2’….powerscales the entire amp including the preamp section
Hammond 125ESE Output Transformer (OPT) - Perhaps 'THE' most Important Component in any Valve Amp. Offers Better and Tighter ‘Bass’ Response along with Cleaner and Clearer ‘Mids’ and a better defined ‘Top’ end.
Master Volume Control - If the Preamp Valve 'Bias' is set Correctly, a Master Volume Control will allow - Preamp Overdrive Only or Power Amp Overdrive Only or Both.
Three Position Preamp Valve ‘Bias’ Switch - Switches the Preamp ‘Bias’ between
‘Negative Feedback’ or
‘Sharp+Clean’ or
‘Medium/High Gain’
Three Position Preamp Valve ‘Gain’ Switch
'Center’ Position is Standard
UP’ is Medium 50% Gain
Down’ is High 100% Gain.
This Switch works in conjunction with the ‘Bias’ Switch and gives the Amp some real BITE.
Tone Control - Allows Selective Boost or Cut of the Upper or Lower Frequencies of the Input Signal. The 'Mid' Frequencies are Maintained. This 'Tone' Control does NOT Obstruct the Signal Path, Preserving the Amps Detail, Clarity and Volume.
Line Out and Headphone Sockets -
(I understand from the RAT website that these Sockets Include a Speaker Output 'Dummy Load' - So you can use the 'Headphone Socket' -or- 'Line Out' With or Without a Main Speaker Connected to the Amp.)
2x Speaker Outputs and Impedance Select - The Output Transformer usually offers individual Speaker Outputs of 4, 8 and 16 Ohms. Fitted to all RAT Amps. Includes an Auto-Switching 'Dummy Load' on the Outputs.
The Valve Bias and HT Voltage is set on each Individual Amp to match the Modifications that have been done.
Celestion 'Super 8' Speaker rated at 15 Watts, 8 Ohms.

if I didn’t already have one, I’d have this off you in a heartbeat.
GLWTS!
The difference is that yours has an attenuator. Mine has power scaling which reduces the plate voltage (from what I understand) across the tubes...
PS. Mine also has a bright switch
