I think he just wanted to know which tube - lps (sovtek) or ts (Tung sol) - people preferred for clean tones and why. Its really pretty simple.

I just visited my local Guitar Center.. lo and behold a ROADKING II sitting in the amp room for 2749.00 new. I put my purchases down.. grab a Les paul and plug in to play.

Nothing... I turn the RK2 around and notice first that all the channels are set to "A" output but plugged into "B" output jack as well as that failsafe phone jack that saves your amp in case you forget to plug your cab to your head.. well both speaker cable and failsafe jack were plugged into B so of course there is no sound. I fix that and finally get to hear this lonestar clean and I have to say I was very impressed with the LS clean.

I will never buy a floor model from GC but I was impressed that they had a RK2 there even if those morons have no clue how to set it up.

Roadking II is my next step and the cleans were good enough.


Lol if that was the GC in Arlington Heights I think I played that amp! Or tried to! I plugged in and started checking everything out to make sure I was ready to apply power. Some sales moron walks up flips on both power and standby and tells me "let her rip!" There was no speaker plugged in and i witnessed an employee trash a Roadking.
