Thanks Thom. I'm a part-time custom furniture designer and builder, so I decided to use some leftover bubinga from a furniture project. I rarely see bubinga so strongly figured, so I decided to do something special for the Boogie. She turns a lot of heads.

Yeah, I decided to just get a variety of things to try. I was a bit surprised at the final lineup... I thought I'd find a home for at least one of the RCA's. I suppose I could try it in the V-5 slot, that's the only place I didn't try an RCA. But frankly, I'm happy where it is. Now she's a...

So here's what I wound up with. V-1 = 1961 Amperex (Holland) ecc83 V-2 = NOS Amperex (England) ecc83 V-3 = NOS Telefunken (branded Fisher) ecc83 V-4 = NOS Mullard CV4024 (12 at7) V-5 = NOS Amperex (England) ecc83 And I now have about 10 spare ecc83/12ax7's. JJ's, some Groove Tubes (re-branded...

Cool, I'll get one and try it out. I've already got a couple of Amperex Holland ecc83's on the way, so that'll give me a couple of things to try for now. Less clean is okay by me. Harmonic overtones are desirable, as are articulate leads. Fairly saturated, but not to death metal standards...

Hi all, I've been doing some lurking here, and have found some useful tips and info. I particularly like the idea of trying one tube at a time in the V-1 slot, trying different things, then moving on to the other slots. I'm in the mood to try some different combinations, and willing to replace...
