    Well, this friend of mine who runs a music shop here (we have two, one is mainy piano's, this one is mainly guitar, bass, some percussion, dj stuff...) and they recently got a tech guy to do repairs. My friend told me he knows his stuff, so I brought my amp in to do the once over, see if the caps or anything else needed replacing. He can get groove tubes. So I'm going with groove tubes. I wonder if I'll hear the difference between 31 year old tubes and groove tubes? ; ) Anyways, when the new ones need replacing, I'm gonna give EH a try. Compare.

    they should sound better because they aren't used up.

    Groove tubes are fine. They are used in everything, but most notably all new fender amps.


    The Groove Tube Amps are outstanding.
