Yellow Jackets & JCM800s

[petejt]

6V6 are similar to a 6L6 and are pretty crunchy. Even with less power than the 6L6 the 6V6 has more bass in the tonal balance.

Cool, thanks for that Stephen. They might be a goer..?

6V6s sound good in that amp. They cut the power in half but that's only going to cut volume by 3 db. To get the amp to crunch territory on its own, it will still be LOUD! Been there done that. If you found plugging in to the lower input was still too loud, 6V6s will not be the answer for you.

Cool, thanks. When I get back home I'll try the 6V6s with Yellow Jackets, and the low sensitivity input.

I can put the Master volume at 4 (about 10 o'clock) with the low sensitivity input and it's not too loud. With the high sensitivity input it is though!
