Re: You KNOW IT MIKEY WANTS TO JOIN THIS CONVERSATION

I too have heard many audiophile types dismiss the 6L6 because it's a "guitar" tube. They seem to forget Marshall who used/uses EL34s extenively.

Turns out that a lot of tube types have been used in musical instrument amps over the years. My favorite is the first issue of the Ampeg SVT. It used 6x6146 in PPP. I wonder how well this scheme held up in the world of live performance?
