ive learnt alot off of the other English Muff'n threads, so im goin to ask a few specific questions, as the threads i psted on previously seem to be dead (ie: no action in months-hehe like me)
1) how do i replace the stock tubes for 12AX7s, do they need to be unscrewed or pulled out, or do i need to take the casing apart?
2) will any 12AX7 fit/work? (i know nothing about tubes)
3) Could i use a bass EQ pedal to boost bass frequencies on the pedal, and would it need to be before or after the muff'n?(a bit of a silly question, but i've never used an EQpedal and im a bit worried that the Muff'n will disappear in a band with two distorted [Metal Muff] guitars)
4) can tubes be worn out/blown with too much input? (i know that thats how u get the drive on it, but our guitarist managed to blow a tube in a 70s Bassman amp just before a gig, i dont want that to happen to me)
i've heard of a few people on here trying to mod it for a better EQ response, but i wouldnt have a clue about that and i dont want someone else to try and rip me off to do it, so im just looking for a simple cheap solution to problems that may arise in a band situation (ive no problems as of yet, im just being cautious)
your advice?
cheers
