I recently finished this build. "Atomica" style Jose mod. But maybe a little more aggressive/modern.
I have a 6-position rotary for different clipping options on the back. Though I find myself using 2N5401s most of the time.

Sounds great! Very impressive clean build, and I really like the intermixing of different components. What made you decide to use the high voltage cap on V1B cathode? I have a bunch of those from long ago, and never saw anyone else use them in a build.

The gold Siemens cap? I've got a few of those around, along with other various 0.68uF film/foil caps. They make good alternatives to mustards since they're impossible to find now. I'll try an ERO 1813 in the next build.
