Re: JJ tubes? Anyone tried this tube trick? (*harp-GEAR-related*)

[maurice richard libby <blues@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

kc,

I have eurotubes in both my Peavey Encore65 and Delta Blues 210.   i have 
the  hybrid tube in the phase inverter position in both amps. They are 
really sweet sounding amps. I use them both for guitar and harp depending 
on the situation and my mood. For harp (with my unidyneII ) they are both 
really nice. By the way, the tubes are the only mods on either amp, since I 
use them for both guitar and harp.
