Put all 6l6's back in the 2:90. How does this sound?

Just a heavy rhythm tone on Lead 2 Red.

All JJ's, pre and power. I just put the old 6l6's back in the class a slots. I had EL34L's in there before.

Better or worse just depends on what your ears want at that time.

EL34L's have a great complex upper mid thing going on that 6l6's can't do, but EL34's compress more. But you can get close with 6l6's on the mids but then you get the best cleans.

I used this mic. It cost' me $75! http://www.cadmics.com/GXL2200.htm

Find a sweet spot of the grill, and roll off the proximity, and add some highend. Done.

love the tone dude. Have you got any samples with the EL34's in. Just to hear a comparison.

Thanks, but Sorry I don't. But you could expect the lowest lows, and the highest highs to be rolled off a bit. And then you'll get a boost in the upper mids somewhere around 2.5k along with a slightly more chewy attack from the EL's.
