[QUOTE="trendkill1168, post: 2891, member: 11"] After trying a bunch of different preamp tubes my favorites are the Shuguang C9's, Shuguang Silver Dragons, & the Electro-Harmonix 12AX7's. I want to try out the Tung-Sol 12AX7's though. For me the Silver Dragons work real well in my SL+ but they are too high gain for any of the other modules or the common input tube slot. For the common input tube and the 2 effects loop tubes I run the EH 12AX7's but want to try the Tung-Sol's in these 3 slots. For the Recto I think the C9's sound the best. For power tubes I was running 6L6's but realized that they are a bit muddy on the low end so I went back to the JJ E34L's. I have set neck mahogony guitars with hot pickups so that may have something to do with it. The 6L6's might work better with a brighter guitar. [/QUOTE]
