This riff is played 4 times. The 1st time through a Mullard ECC83 (both triodes in parallel), 2nd through the old stock Telefunken EF86, and third through BOTH preamp tubes. The fourth riff same as 3rd, but with UR12's VVR circuit turned all the way down. The master volume is dimed all the time. The speaker is an inexpensive 12" Eminence ceramic in an open back cabinet. Mic is SM57 about 12" away. Bridge humbucker.

B+ is 308V at the plate of the power tube.

The power tube is an old stock Webcor 6V6GT.

A first! By me! This is a short clip of some late night clean pickin' on my 2k Mexican Strat plugged into my Calico Beast vJr, and using the post-OT line out to feed the input of a Lexicon MPX G2 (factory patch 11 - rotary), which feeds my twin Funk 47 VJr's.

Recording is done by way of a Shure SM57 (on the Beast) straight to a Behringer UB-802 mixer, and Rhode NT-5 stereo pair (on the Funk 47's) via twin ART Tube PAC's into the Behringer. Captured digitally in 16bit/44kHz by Korg MR-1, and converted to hi-res MP3 by Cakewalk Pyro.

Nasty Wench Part 2

Tubes: 2 x JJ ECC83s, JJ KT77. Guitars: No-name $60 Strat copy, Godin Solidac, Gibson Les Paul Studio. Speakers: Marshall 1936 w/Greenbacks.
This is basically my take on the Good Girl with two parallel preamp tubes. The second tube has separate cathode resistors and bypass caps set to different values. V1 = 47k load resistor, 820R cathode, 2.2uF bypass cap. V2 = 51k load resistor, 1.5k cathode, 3.3uF bypass cap, 680r cathode, 1uF bypass cap. I wanted to post this clip as a baseline before adding the third preamp tube back in. Thanks.

Not sure what the backing track is...a buddy emailed it to me to add a guitar part to.

Excuse the sloppiness and rough mix...this was simply a test to see that we could do this back and forth. I just plugged in, turned on, hit record, and started noodling.

Marshall modded Vjr cranked, pushed with a homebrew modified TS, close mic'd w/SM57. Les Paul w/PAFs. No EQ added. Room verb and delay only. Speaker is a G12H100 in a small Lopo 1x12 cabinet.

Comparison between stock Em speaker and a Super 8. Both speakers not fully broken in. Two clips, clean and distorted (using a TS808). Em comes first, then the Super 8. Recorded using my Tom Anderson Drop Top and a Sennheiser e606 mic.
