You also need informed as to how these tube guitar amps came to exist. Back when these companies were started, a guy would buy everything direct from the designers such as G.E. or Sylvania
With the bulk orders of tubes, transformers etc. came a schematic. These tube guitar amp companies built their amps off these standard schematics and stuck their label on the enclosures
Ultimately, they added tone stacks to compete and more as time passed. These core designs are still the basis to this day
dude, you can’t even spell his name so I’m pretty sure you don’t even know much about who he is. It’s a reason why he’s called “The Master Of Tone”. You don’t get that kinda tone with a solid state amp and just saying “softer, harsher”. Lol
And what does it matter even if they aren’t professionals at circuts, the point is that it’s a big reason why they play tube amps.. All of them.. Vai, Petrucci, Satch etc
Thanks David, I love the fact that you guys cover a wide array of tone related topics – not just guitar lessons.
Jesus Christ would you quit your bitchin? Fine, you may or may not know everything there is to know about guitar technology. The purpose of this video is to show people who may not know about tube amps what to consider when shopping for one, not for some amateur to spout his supposed “knowledge”. No one cares about your opinion of good tone, no one cares about why companies use famous guitarists over techies (its to make more money, dip shit!). This is useful stuff, so fuck off. Tard
You care don’t you? please tell me you care!! Know one was talking to you numb nuts. We don’t need the thought police telling us what we should and shouldn’t thread, especially since it has nothing to do with you, you busy body. People do care, and yes that’s why they make serious money with signature models. The player/consumer makes the amp, not the other way around. We tell them what we like. If they don’t listen, they end up with names as recognizable as supercool1990.
I’m not the one mocking the video or talking shit about tubes. Why don’t you read the full conversation before making dumb comments and making stupid accusations?
true.
I did.
two camels in a small car
thats an RWJ quote for all who wanted to know
Man, a lot of flame going on here. It just shows that it’s absolutely ARBITRARY and subjective. There will always be those who prefer one over the other AND NOBODY IS WRONG, and are entitled to their OPINIONS. Let’s all show each other some respect, eh?
@goalieblues good point. +1
i got the little fender champ 600 and find it a bit shrill, iam getting a new speaker for it would a change of valve manufacturer soften th etone? i hear jj nice and mellow
cool
Most likely not, those amps tend to be shrill most likely due to the speaker. Make sure you get a les bright speaker.
as crazy as this may sound, I like the clean tone of a solid state more than that of a valve amp
what would you have to do to a apm head to be able to switch out tubes and mix and match.. i know the dual and triple rectifier from mesa boogie allow you to do that but im talking about say and amp head from marshall
Hey man! We don’t see you nearly often enough. MORE TAUB!
I love this guy. He’s such a “dude” and all, but stuff he says us really important and helpful to many people. This is a lesson to a lot of you people in comments. You can’t play shit guitar, yet you your EGO is spilling all over the place. Look at this guy in the video. That’s the man.
you forgot the 5881 output tube.
:39 Yes, it is important to know the different kipes of tubes available.
Great video though, I really learned a lot… Not I just need money for a decent amp.
dude your the man
sorry ,youre the man
5881 is a 6L6. 5881 is the manufacturer’s name for the tube. There are many different types of 6L6s.
I think you’re wrong. 5881 is not a brand. 6L6WGB is similar to 5881 tube which is different of 6L6GB and 6L6GA.
What’s the best tube (preamp/power) brands to get the closest Fender Clean tone out of my Traynor YCS50? it’s got 3 12ax7 and two 5881’s.. thanks inadvanced!
I have a 71 princeton reverb someone put EL84’s in,, it sounds great and is way loud,, I dont understand the mod ,,but the amp is deep and has great tone
