Anyone think a custom Carmen Ghia with a EF86 instead of a 12ax7 in the preamp would sound any good?

I think the Doc has considered that once or twice .... but why mess with perfection of the Carmen Ghia?
Then again, maybe it could be called something like ...... the XB .... like as in my Scion ... as it would be small and shaped like a box and fit the Dr Z car name practice he has on some of the amps.
Or maybe "The Gremlin" ... a car from yester-year that was also sort of shaped like an amp head. They even made a few with a V8 engines which could sort of be related to the EF86 pentode thinking.
But .... I personally love the Carmen Ghia as it is.

I think the Doc should make a 10 watt head and call it "The Pinto" ;D

Yeah, every time you turn it on it bursts into flames.
