Hi Don-Yes my set has the original pedistal jensen speaker and is the later version with 2-2B6 output tubes.
My repairman had a heck of a time finding 2 good ones and told me to buy a spare if I ever saw one for sale.

Ironically one came up on ebay last month and I got it NOS for only $15. The pair in the amp cost me about 10 times that for a matched pair.
