John De Luca | Re: EL84 amps Steve, Thank you for answering my email. I have heard the Peavey Blues Classic w/1 15'' speaker, so I agree with you that the larger speakers sound better in these particular amps. I have often read in mags about changing preamp tubes from 12ax7 to 12yb7 or something to smooth out the overdirve. What is your opinion on this? Also, I have listed an Hilgen amp that I wouldn't mind gutting for a DIY. Could you please give me your opinion on this? I am looking for classic Fender clean (good headroom) and useful overdrive (no metal, but good Zepplin type), any ideas? tHaNkS... |
