Re: Preamp Tubes? - Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How?
ok. Current status:
V1 has the Westinghouse in it that was originally there. I just popped the 12BZ7 into V2 to see if it exhibited the same symptoms in that spot. This is interesting...
Now the clean channel has tons of noise. Actually so much so that I can't play over it at all. However, the crunch channel has a lot more presence and seems pretty, well... Crunchy. Nice tone. Clear definition on all the notes. Not bad. But when I stop playing... There's a slight ringing in the background. Not too loud, but definitely audible. The Lead channel is smokin'. Lots more presence. Good note definition, real heavy British rock. Same thing with the ringing tone (note-wise the tone matches up with the G string at the 9th fret).
Just for kicks-n-grins I may put everything back as it originally was then try the 12BZ7 in V4.
