Peavey 6534?

The 6534+ is a 6505+ but with a noise reduction circuit (like the JSX) and an EL34 based power amp.

It's just a different flavour of tone, more 'Brittish' if you will. As for the 'should it just have been left alone question', well that's down to taste, lots of players prefer El34, like lots prefer 6L6.

Personally, with the 6L6s having the bigger, tighter bottom end less of an upper mid focus, they suit the playing style that the 5150/6505 series is aimed for, I myself would like to hear a 5150 with EL34s.
