This great tube set will get you a warm, rich singing bluesy tone for both blues and rock from the popular Fender Blues Jr. amp. It includes: A Matched set of the great JJ EL84's - the best sounding EL64/6BQ5 for the Blues Jr. A "Torres matched" 12AX7 phase inverter for V3 (next to the power tubes) The matched tube has been tested to find the tubes with exact matching triode circuits on both sides of the tube. It is used in the Push-Pull Phase inverter circuit so both sides of the phase inverter have EXACTLY the same gain. If you are a musician, you will hear this immediately in a smoother, cleaner more accurate tone, incredible definition clean and WAY better sound, drive and sustain when overdriven. A real benefit for your amp. It also has MUCH lower noise as the humbucking character of the push-pull phase inverter is "more perfected". The super tone quality TungSol 12AX7 for V2. (the middle preamp tube) The TungSol as V2 gives a full, fat tone with greatly improved bass, midrange and treble response, with a noticeable "singing" character to the upper strings. And the "Underground blues tone tube" the EH 12AY7 for V1. (farthest from the power tubes). A 12AY7 has lower gain then a 12AX7, and provides more headroom in the Blues Jr. But BESIDES THAT, we have found from tons of experience that this particular 12AY7, the EH, has fantastic sustain - even clean. a "Violin like" character, clean or distorted, that not even NOS tubes provide. The EH also has a spiral filament for super, SUPER, low noise - as V1 this REALLY, REALLY is a benefit to your amp. The noise floor drops by about 40% A huge improvement in the amp's tone, sustain and warmth with this great tube set. Plus included FREE - is the Dan Torres article "Tweakin' Tubes" (how to change Preamp tubes around for lots of cool tones - even more ideas to work with!!) and the famous Torres "Bias Notes" booklet for info on setting the bias in your amps. This is the total "killer tone" tube package for your Blues Jr. This tube set has been fantastically popular, everyone really digs the great transformation of the amp with this select tube set and we have nothing but good feedback on this setup with the Blues Jr. amp. The Torres Tube Sets is fully compatible with all Mods for these amps and will enhance your Blues Jr. to the ultimate. |
