Swap the tubes out for some NOS Svetlanas and change the little speaker to a weber, i bet it kills.

I'm feeling your pain. I have a Gibson Goldtone GA-15, pretty much identical to the Velocette. I've been using a jury-rigged cab, the shell of an old dead Univox combo with a Vintage 30 12" installed as the output to get a little more Bass out of the amp. Works pretty good, but it's completely open back, as in see through, LOL.

I've order the Blackheart mini-stack hoping to kill two birds, maybe three. The Head can power the included Eminence, the Vin30, or I can power by large Bandmaster 2x12" cab with it. Meanwhile I can try the GA-15's 15 Class A watts thru the Blackheart Closed Back Cab. I wish the thing would get here!!!
