Well, in general they don't have much going for them in the way of a friendly and informative web site!

The MC PT may not fit through the chassis cut-out. I wouldn't run the higher voltage. PETA should get after Mojo for that. You could turn the idle current down by adjusting the cathode resistor, but I would expect the power tubes will run hot when you are playing it.
