In the right place it can be great

by

In a dark amp in V2 it can make a huge difference. Trying everything I had which all sounded good but always went back to this one. Came stock in my Blues breaker which got a full rebuild to a 59 slp 87x JTM 45 with a flick of a switch. It has that just can't stop playing tone now. Love the Tung KT66 in it also. They can be very hit and miss, good ones test off the chart.

Ideal for someone, just not me.

Sound all right, too much gain for my pre-amp/effects processor....just means it's more finicky and can't be opened up without the tone and clarity take a dump....it will serve ok as an emergency backup, but I definitely couldn't see running it long-term. Would be ideal for an application where high gain is desirable.

Best tube for death metal sound

Shuguang 12ax7B/V2 and JJ ecc83s/V1 dans un préamp Engl e530 et j’ai obtenu un son dévastateur et incisif avec une distorsion plein de détails subtils et du gain à revendre.
Merci beaucoup Jon un service impeccable !

Downside: pins are fragile so be careful
