no, it won't work right mainly because of the
cathode resistors. you can change those and
use 12AX7 instead. (change both to 1.5K)
it's also groovy to change the plate resistors
to 100K. then it works fine.
but alas, it don't sound the same.

... cathode resistors. ... it's also groovy to change the plate resistors ... it already *has* 100k plate resistors and the stock 820ohm cathode resistor is perfect for the two paralled sections of the 12AX7 ... Your amp expertise is simply astounding; perhaps th 5E3 is too modern for you. ...
