Help me re-tube my Super 100JH
Posted: 20 Jan 2012, 13:10
I need to re-tube my Super 100JH and will most likey go with the Gold Lion KT66, but I'm open to other suggestions. I want to keep my amp stock along with the bear trap retainers.
I play a lot of blues and classic rock style stuff.
For the 12ax7's I am debating between the Tung Sol or the Gold Lion.
Regardless of price, please recommend preamp tubes - especially if you have experience with these two - or other suggestions.
I will probably go thru the Tube Store or Depot because I've had good luck with warranty. I did well for my Champ getting old stock from ebay but will probably not go that route for this amp.
Also, I hear people say to put a certain tube V1 and then a different brand in V2, and V3.
I've always used the same tubes in all 3 positions.
Thanks for your time.

I am hearing that I should use Mullared RI 12ax7 tubes instead....
