The transition from the "classic" to the "skyliner" stack will have taken place in the 150-160 range so Peters could be either.My guess is a Classic...Listen to the amp in jazz setting.. Very Very Good

Hi Tony,
The transition from "classic" to "skyline" took place in the "classic" > "skyline" transition generation. All these amps did still have a "deep" switch. But Peter’s ODS has obviously a "Mid" switch and the look is the usual 5th generation "skyline" look, too. So I personally have no doubts at all that Peter’s amp is a 5th generation "skyline" ODS with a "skyline" tone stack and the precision power supply. And AFAIR it is a 6L6 amp like #173 that had a very similar tone AFAIR.
Here are some pictures of the "classic" > "skyline" transition generation ODS amps and a 5th generation "skyline" ODS like #173 and Peter’s:
Indeed, the ODS-101 non-HRM schematic as posted in the link above was what I was referring to. There was some discussion on Peter's amp a while back (I think it was Tonegeek that posted the link to Peter's video) but I did not learn what topology Peter's amp was most closely related to. I appreciate your help in sorting it out for me.
I really like the clarity without the excessive detail on clean notes and the honk/grind of the OD. Sounds killer!
Mac Daddy, hey that looks good did sound just as good?

I have since moved on to a 4G
Hi Mac Daddy,
This combo is one of the 2nd generation "pre-classic" ODS combos, which have been exported to Europe. Their cabinets have been made by the European distributor. Here is a layout of a 2nd generation "pre-classic" ODS 50W: https://tubeamparchive.com/viewtopic.ph ... 751#136751
And here are some links to some clips I've posted here, which all have been recorded with such a 2nd generation "pre-classic" ODS:
