Doc,

  I see that you discovered an old pair of BH amps. If you wouldn't mind, I think t would be interesting for you to note some of the significant changes in some of these products. I know that I have changed some of my ways(products) over the years, how about you?

A Bottlehead Genesis (short form):

In the beginning darkness was upon the face of the world, and Doc said "Let there be SEX!" and lo, there was SEX.

And in the fullness of time, SEX begat AfterGlow.

Upon a time, AfterGlow begat BeeGlow, and ParaGlow.

And in later years, BeeGlow and ParaGlow begat ParaBee, which begat the Paramount twins.

In their old age, SEX and ParaGlow begat Paramour, which begat Stereomour.

Speaking of Bottlehead history...

Did anyone ever build the BluesMaster amp?
Are the Buddhafied Afterglows still alive?

Both of those were design exercises. There were amps we built that were close, but I don't recall ever building them exactly like the articles.

There was Foreplay as well which was what got me started with tubes. Mine still works fine.
