I'm thinking of throwing some 6v6 tubes in my roadster so I can get great recto tone in my bedroom, but I'm concerned about what that will do to my tone. Anyone have comparision clips for any amp in the recto range?
 
Hi:

Actually - I think I have exactly what you're looking for. Try using the 720p setting in YouTube - the sound is better.

The first video is my son playing his DR with 6V6.

This is also with 6V6.

This video is him playing the same amp with 6L6.

Very little difference in tone - big difference is available headroom

Hope this helped.
Chris
