arount it...just like one of those dampers. fashion it into a dumper type ring. i didnt try it yet. but just read upon checking.... http://herbiesaudiolab.net/ultrafq.htm only good for speaker damping...which is what i bought it for in the first place but read or heard it would work with...

anyone try tube dampers in combos? i bought some of that clay window sealant..it's supposed to settle things down. mortite, i think it's called? that hiss rattle that tubes do drives me batty!

you can still use a MP tube in the PI position and it can be fine. or in a tube based pedal.

mine too. really liquid and good..then..dead almost.

any tung sol RI i've bought tests bad. sounds fine...well, fine as far as TS tubes are concerned.

i hate that crackling/tickling noise. but, nothing touches the ruination of excitement that a microphonic tube renders. maybe a smelly vag upon depanty-ing, but, even then, you can get by.

+100 as i said above! bum wiring.

micro-phonic

find one type that you like, or two, different ones out of the bunch..then buy a few more. try and set a limit of what you'll pay per tube, based on how much you want it. i got my cv4024 for much less than yours. and it was NEW old stock guarunteed. i know this sounds dumb, but look at recent...

also, based on what i can gather from my experience with tung sol preamp reissues, they can sometimes test low or even dead, and sound absolutely brilliant at higher volumes. of the one's ive tried in my high gain stages, the lower testing ones always sound better at gig volume..while the...

+100 mesa take note of don's vids!

some, as we know would argue the matching of a PI tube also. i opted for a matched tube myself. i noticed an increased clarity in my amp, and a difference in feel, when i changed it from the stock groove tube, which, to my knowledge wasn't matched, but i didnt have an unmatched LPS to check it...

my wife says, hendrix foxy lady! but i say no!

as dumb as this sounds...i REALLY meant what i said....this series of vids sold me. on the first 2 channels alone. yeah, i watched the petrucci vid, and about a trillion other youtube vids. i played one in store a good bit. and had been wishy washy about keeping my egnater tourmaster... i've...
