Sounds kinda weird, I know... most people are probably scratching their heads saying "duh, power tubes"...
That being said, I'm a bit of a pedal whore and have found that =C= SED 6L6GC's get the job done and then some...
It is getting to be time for a retube on the Super Reverb and I currently have mullard CV4024's in v3 & v6 and tung-sol RI 12ax7's in the other slots...
I've read that the V2 spot is mega-crucial in terms of "tone", and may actually impact your overall tone (if you are a pedal user) more than pricey NOS power tubes... True? False? Blasphemy?
Should I drop some coin on a stellar 12ax7 for v2 or put that to some slightly better NOS power tubes (otherwise, I'm going for the SED's again).
Any fender amp users have a favorite 12ax7 (new prod or NOS?)
Thanks, valve gurus!
