Anyone have any info on the new Boutique branded tubes in Friedman amp? And yes I have searches and to my surprise I haven’t found a definitive answer to what they are.

Anyway, just got a new Smallbox V3 head, it’s amazing. Notice the preamp tube V1 is a Boutique branded JJ 12ax7 looks like. V2-3 I’m not sure, but they have kind of a Mullard style plates. No idea what manufacturer the BT-EL34 is from. Thanks

Looks like the V2-3 are Boutiqe labeled Psvayne 12ax7’s. V1 is of course ARS labeled JJ. I imagine the EL34’s are Psvayne also.

This. Guess he got away from the EH EL34's. I know he used them for reliability, but I hated them. Peavey used to use those EH EL34's in the JSX. I always found them grainy, and nothing special. I always took them out immediately.
