Hi guys!
I have a 2000 3ch Triple Rectifier and I still have the stock Mesa preamp tubes in it (power amp tubes are JJ EL34). I've used it always in diode rectifier mode and I've bought it used, with almost new tubes.
I want to change the preamp tubes essentially because the head have a sort of hum when used with loop engaged (I've tried swapping the V4 tube with another one and the hum is decreased), so I'd like the change all the 5 tubes. Any suggestion on what tubes can I use?
I play in a rock alternative grunge band. I really love the rectifier sound, but I've always needed more upper mids on my sound. Also, I always use the loop because I have a lot of delay/modulation in it and I also need the solo function. I live in Italy so I should buy it from Italy/Europe.
Thanks in advance for the reply!
