Reggaebass Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I’ve tried a spam roll 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Substituting different preamp tubes in order to change the characteristics of the amp; 12AU7 for 12AX7, Tungsol for JJ, that sort of thing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Tut Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I’ll be gigging mine in a couple of hours at the New Day festival. Been stuck on the bloody M25 for ages! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanAxe Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I would be wary of fitting a 12AU7 in place of a 12AX7 as the former ñ draw a lot more current, which can fry your anode resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassmanPaul Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) That's not true in my experience. The 12AU7/ECC82 has a smaller amplification factor, µ, and has a greater anode dissipation but cannot draw more power replacing a 12AX7/ECC83.
