Mesa Boogie Single Rectifier - Tube Kit
Metal -
Our "metal" amp tube kit is designed to produce richer, thicker, and darker tones. You have the choice between Ruby 6L6's or JJ 34's, it includes a "high gain" preamp tone kit. The Ruby 6L6GCMSTR's give you articulate distortion or the JJ EL34's will give you a "wall of sound" and the attack and response needed in metal. Our preamp tone kit is all high gain, designed so you can push your amp and is as follows:
V1 - Gold Lion 12AX7 standard pin (High Gain)($37.90)
V2 - Ruby 12AX7ACZ(JJ) HG (High Gain)($23.95)
V3 - Ruby 12AX7ACZ(JJ) HG (High Gain)($23.95)
V4 - JJ ECC83S HG (High Gain)($22.95)
V5 - JJ ECC83S (High Gain)($22.95)
Rock / Hard Rock -
Our "rock" amp tube kit is designed to produce richer, smooth, fuller bodied tones. You have a choice between 6L6GC's or EL34's. The Tung-Sol EL34B's have a smooth, almost 6L6 like distortion.
We recommend the Mullard CV4004 in V1 - it will give the clean channel a three dimensional sound. Placing the Ruby/JJ 12AX7ACZ HG in V2 and V3 will give your modern vintage gain channels a little more character. Our preamp tone kit will give you the flexability needed in rock, and is as followed:
V1 - Gold Lion 12AX7 standard pin($34.90)
V2 - Ruby 12AX7ACZ(JJ) HG($20.95)
V3 - Ruby 12AX7AC5 HG($26.95)
V4 - JJ ECC83S($19.95)
V5 - JJ ECC803S($26.00)
