Has some JJ EL34's I think. It doesn't sound as good as the one from the shootout. Not sure what was in the one I used, I'm inquiring. It lacks the low end and the hi fi sparkle, it sounds more English. What's the best tubes for the VH4?
I'd totally put some Svetlana 6550s in that amp man. It will totally rip with them in there. Played a friends VH4 w/ it, and I was like...holy mother of god...that's killer tone!

Really digging the EVH 5150 III tones, but thats no suprise as I already liked it when I played it.
That Shiva sure doesn't sound like my old Shiva

First, thanks so much for doing this... it is totally killer! Really cementing for me how amazing Dave's work is. Second, congrats on the VH4! Third, you said you were going to unload some gear to get the VH4, so... I'll take the '71 ST!!!

I like both of those as well. Some guys didn't like the ELmwood clip but i like it. Oh well, some guys are drooling over the VH4 clip while i don't think much of it.
Watching all the videos it's like we have our own little reality show
The Real Housewives OF NJ can suck it. Can't believe my wife watches that crap.

I just messed around this morning real quick with the new VH4, here's a short clip:

I think I'm gonna really love this amp. I gotta play tighter and cleaner though. In the sections where my playing is better it sounds better.
