no doubt a Class AB
you dont build Class A using as high as +- 55 Volt
the quiescense, idle, current going in Ouput transistors
in each is according to Ohm's Law
0.0137 V / 0.1 Ohm = 0.137 Ampere ( 137 mA )
this is typical for Class AB
for Class B would have been near to 0 mA
for Class A several Amperes
137 mA is towards high Class AB
normal values like 40-50 mA are not unusual

Jacco seems to have woken up on the wrong foot 
but his post has elements of truth
There are a couple of resistors that have no function (and may be detrimental to the performance of the amp), some mistakes in wiring that will do the same, and for god sake PLEASE redraw that circuit with straight lines, I still feel dizzy!

Al is more than gentle with me, and has been on many occasion.
Bad timing, Rod Elliot's April Fools item doesn't even come close to this, besides the lack of drawing skills.
This schematic has the scent of gratuity Spice disease, lacking any respect for the true audio designers with a ton of knowledge.
