I have tried a few brands of tubes and like JJ TAD and sovtek that I ripped out of a traynor ycv40wr. I swapped out the preamp tubes as well to the sovteks and I like the sound with those cheap tubes lol. The tads have a very complex tone but the sovteks smoothed out my tone lots which is...

I was thinking of driving the rhythm channel of the boogie as it sounds great

wow very interesting thanks a bunch. I was trying a bunch of different tubes tonight power and preamp and I can't tame the fizz. I want to like this amp but next to my old Traynor mark3 head it sounds like crap on the lead channel

I know if I put the 12au7 in v1 it doesn't effect the volume much but if it is in v2 the volume is way less. I think I will try an 12at7 in v1 as well

I am also a new .50 caliber + owner and i am fighting a high end sizzle that I can't seem to get rid of. I tried a 12au7 but I think it's too low gain. I have tad power tubes and tried some jj's which sounded worse. I have a jj 12ax7 a mesa boogie 12ax7 and I think the other 2 are eh.I can't get...

cool I didn't know that how do you like yours? what speaker config do you use?

I have a CU22 and it is my most well rounded guitar I love the pickups Dragon II's they will clean up very nice with a volume roll off. I have the rotary switch which I don't mind but the toggle would be easier I think.

I thought the .50 was el84's

I was wondering if it is ok to try some EL34's in this amp?

I called Mesa Boogie and it's an audio taper pot

I know lol but the scematics I have seen don't list part numbers

Thanks I didn't even find a part number could you tell me where you found it

The volume pot is fubar on my amp and it has been changed already once. The person that sold it to me changed it my question id should it be audio taper or linear because it's linear right now. I alway thought for volume you would be better off using A taper pots. Thanks

I had the same problem with my .50 cal and it was a bad preamp tube :D

I like the guitar tone it's thick and smooth yet defined. Are you pushing it with the TS?

I will do that I think thanks

I just got my head and I have a question well ok 2 questions. I am in an apartment for the next two weeks so I can't turn it up but the lead sound is very sharp and not so full I am wondering if I get the power tubes going will it smooth it out and fill out the sound. Next thing is when I switch...

Hey Baldy did you get it sorted out?? I have a very similar problem where my clean is noisy but lead is fine

I am having the same problem with my head I just got it tonight I the lead channel is quiet and the clean hums

LMAO not quit the clip i was looking for. I guess I left myself wide open not saying "sound clip" :mrgreen:
