ConradK:
I see h and k use the same celestion vintage 30s in their cabs? Can't see why any manufacturer of an amp would place speakers in their cabs which don't sound good with the Amps they make ?
do a favour to yourself, jj el 84 power amp tubes. And 2 jj 12ax7 and one tung sol 12ax7 for v1. Your gonna raise your presence and treble knobs.stargazer747 wrote:ConradK, that's exactly the definition for what I also hear, "shrillness". I couldn't quite find a word for it but that sounds just right. Being so dependent on solid state for so long and never having a tube amp, I'm unaware of how to work out particular sound results like this one. To reduce it I was trimming back the treble and presence, and I too was dropping the volume and backing off the tone on my guitars. Perhaps different tubes like JJ, sovtek, or groove tubes might change that?
Music :whatever i like and can playConradK wrote:Ignatios - thanks
What style of music do you play?
how long have you been playing for?
What type of guitar do you use ?
did this tame the treble?
did it change the voicing of the amp i.e. did it become darker or has it simply reduced treble and /or smoothed out the sound - how would you describe the change in tone?
what goes where - i have never changed tubes on an amp
