I like the RCUO A5 better.

I bought a set of long handled T shaped wrenches.

Their custom shop is using some planks from trees reclaimed after Californian wildfires.

Pickups are more transparent than most people think.

Try a rough cast unoriented A5 magnet.

I have a mason jar filled with wax. I repott quite often with good success.

Most newer power bricks have 18v taps.

Order a set of short polepieces from Philadelphia Luthier Supplies to tighten and clarify.

There's a similarity in concept if not design.

It sounds like an EMG89.

If they TESTED different, I could see complaining about it. But inconsistent test readings don't make a tube bad.

You don't bias 12ax7's, so having an exactly matched set means little. Also, it makes little difference if the tubes match exactly, since some are reverb drivers and some are phase inverters.

I wouldn't mind this one.
