    Cheers Bob! I’ve heard people debate the standby switch for decades but when you talk, I listen. Glad to finally put that one to sleep! Thank you for your take on the current situation, you nail it 100%. You’re a living legend and by far the coolest of a dying breed. Awesome to see you pumping iron and dropping wisdom. Pay attention folks!

    I switched to 6ca7 in the bugera. And the standby on my windsor studio is on regardless. I think its to a relay on the pc.

    Glad you talked about attenuators. When I was kid my boss got the deal with Tom sholz for rockman to sell to music stores . I was the only guitar player there so I got demos. Products. I got the rockman loved it at the time. Lived in apartment , but powersoak was a attenuator. He gave it to me. I set it up but I only had one amp. At that time. It was a lot of money to me. (Mesa boogie with beautiful wood and eq ) I knew Tom sholz was smart but. I couldn’t fire it up. I thought it was possible it would kill my amp. So I never used it . But now I see all these people using ox. Then started thinking well technology has moved forward. But I know. You are right. Glad so glad I didn’t get ox. Or use the power soak

    I told them I want KT77's for the Diezel Herbert MK3, and all new design Metal Amp Tubes, bought their t-shirts and they threw in an extra one that wasn't listed, for free.

    What nos tubes. Do you like. ? It seems like the tubes are getting close to nos prices anyway. Do you think just go for nos tubes then ? I got lucky with rca black plate s 6l6gc. They sound great in a fender vibro king . I liked advice you gave on tube life

    Ps Vane makes them in China, they have focused on making tubes for hifi until now. TAD has been working with them to develop tubes for guitar
