the ECC83 for the V1 position you recommended me

MY GOD, this thing is unreal.... :shocked:

the cleans improved by 50%
texas mode sounds like I took a little blanket off of it
Mega and Ch.2 sound incredibly rich, yet there's still A LOT of gain and punchiness, and surprisingly the gain is VERY Tight still

how can this be? I was expecting an overall improvement on the clean/texas, but I was honestly ready to give up some gain/balls/tightness in the mega/ch.2 but :no: has not happened! :D :rock:
 
so, now tell us which one it is, because i have to change preamp tubes - and also want some extra-magic! :D
 
It's an ECC83 for V1


btw... here's a quick clip I made in Garage Band

Sorry for the not so exciting playing and crappy Garage Band drums :D


the gain was at 10:00! ch.2

double tracked (two guitars left with the 421, and two guitars right SM57)

Bass played through the Einstein too and Mic'd with the SM57 :rock:

yeah, thats the normal type of tube, but which brand is it?
 
Hmmm.... that's good to know .... I have a bunch of preamp tubes around (incl. EH ones). Should try this out. The other one which I'll put in as soon as I get a cab will be a "truly vintage" Siemens ECC83, well burnt in with my Dynacord combo for the last decade :-)
