[QUOTE="TheAbomb12, post: 10740, member: 145"] 6L6 is certainly more naturally scooped; but the tone produced is more aggressive sounding. You will definitely lose the Massive feeling of El34s (in favor of aggressive tone), but you can always add more mids in your EQ. Another alternative is 5881, which is a recent favorite by people with MOD50s. I have no personal experience with these tubes, but apparently they have the Characteristics of 6L6s, but also have some good mids (making them good to use with marshall mods). Someone else can come in and give you a clearer description, since I've never used it. Yes. Sell it. Buy something else. In all seriousness, you can do the capacitor mod- but in all honesty, it does improves the tone- but not enough for me to even consider using it as a main module. I highly recommend getting either the UltraXL or 1086. If you HAVE to have a Rectifier tone I suggest the Grail mod. [/QUOTE]
