Thank you. Pero kailangan kong magpalit ng preamp tubes after I consulted some symptoms  to Dr. Dan Stratman1.

Dan, pare-pareho lang ba ang pin configuration ng 12AX7 kahit na anong brand? May 1-pin gap kasi yung nakakabit sa amp ko. Ganito yung config nung tubes :

Puede rin ba ito?:

Yea, man. Pareho yang dalawang yan. Pasok sa same socket. Ang sabi ng iba, e meron daw difference with the tightness and gain between different 12ax7s. It's up to you kung ano ang gusto mo. Both Russian made. Sa akin, nagamit ko na yang dalawa. Ala naman masyadong pagkakaiba, para sa akin.

One more thing, kung may weird sound pa tingnan mo rin yong power tubes. Hindi mo alam kong gano katagal at gano kagamit na yang mga tubo.

....yeah watch out for microphonic power tubes. I suggest you get new ones.....ano bang klaseng power tubes in your amp now?

preamp tubes...different characters...kailangan experiment para makuha mo ang tone mo.....since blues player ka...you don't need the high gain ones...regular lang ...you want to go warmer...GT-Mullards.....pero depende din...may ibang amp na hindi magmamatch...power wise and voicing wise. Si Markflo naka Fender....ask him. My tubes won't match your taste...tapos magloko loko pa ang amp mo if you use my tube setup.

...since naka tubo ka na...after a while...you won't be dependent on your pedals....IF you like the sound of your  tube amp....just like me....the lesser pedals ...the better.

Yeah... like Phil... later on mapapansin mong hindi mo na kailangan ang maraming pedals. Ang amp mo may trem and verb na. Ano pang kailangan mo sa blues? Akin, chorus and delay nalang sa fx loop section tapos od/dist straight sa head. Ala pang masyadong kalat, hehe.

you NEEEEEED pedals man!!! join the darkside of the force!!!! nyeeeeehahahahaha...

go with 12ax7EH man...better for "fender" style amps...the gt mullards are good but i think they're a bit more "brit-voiced" tubes...so are the ecc83's...go either sovtek LPS, 12ax7EH, or the regular ol' 12ax7WA....

those brit tubes are a bit too rich for the fender circuit...mawawala yung glassy cleans mo...

they're great though...i put 12ax7m's on my valveboy and tube driver...they rawk...hehehe....

Oo nga, hindi ko kailangan ang maraming EFX. Kaya nga ibinalik ko na yung EH The Worm at ibinili ko na lang ng tubes. Rereserba ko na lang yung mat i  t i rang pera para sa BOSS TU-2.
Regalo lang naman sa akin ng kumpare ko yung Worm, bahala na daw ako kung paano kong gagamitin yung pera kung hindi ko nagustuhan yung EFX.

Sorry Mark, naka-order na kasi ako ng tubes eh. EH nga yung kinuha ko.
