Hey everyone-
Lastnight I replaced the outer el34 tubes with the 6l6s. I have two JJ 6l6s, and two SED 6l6s. What a major difference this made in Rhy 1 and Rhy 2. Those channels sounded so much better with the all 6L6 power section, I was amazed... BUT... the lead channel sounded horrible. Wasn't nearly as thick and warm as it is with the el34s. So now my problem is this: Great Clean channel and Rhy 2 overdrive tones, but horrible lead with the all 6l6s, or ok cleans and rhy 2, and a great lead? Is there anyway to get the best of both worlds here, as in different tubes or settings? Anyone else experience this? Thanks guys.
