    Re: Power tubes for JCM 800, opinions?

    My old jcm came stock with teslas. But eh were an improvement once the teslas wore out, these would be the closest to the marshall badged el34s. I have jjs in the power section of my current marshall (jj own tesla now) but I think they are a bit different to the old teslas - bigger bottle and plates.
    Eh in the pre is good tho fo shiz.
    Maybe EH in the power amp for that growl, or jj if you want more headroom, or EH6ca7 for even more headroom and bass.

      Had the Winged Cs installed/biased and the first thing I notice was a much deeper bottom end, and brighter tone as well. I really think I will like these, can't for rehearsal.
      The pre amp tubes are original marshall as well, I think I will put the tungsols in v1 v2 and a jj in v3
