This is a relatively recent post of that performance - there was an older one (gone now) where the sound matched to visuals better.

The "available in a music store" solution:
SPL Reducer - Passive Power Soak For Guitar & Bass Amplifiers
So what are you doing? Preamp or power amp (or both) subs? You can go down a LOT by dropping tubes in a preamp chain, or the splitter. You probably know this, but not everyone will. Lower gain preamp and splitter tubes will drop the power (and hence the volume). They also impact tine, so you may get pleasant or unpleasnat surprises, depending on the tube and amp circuit.
Tubes
HAHA!! I wish! 28 degrees outdoors. broke a D string. sucked, but pay was good..Looks like you played in a sauna!
I was being frustratingly rhetoric ..Sometimes it was because those tubes were really cheap back then. Other times, a designer just wanted to play with the tube based on teh specs or possibilities, or looking for something different or "better".
The *real* question here is why you're worrying about that for an accordion amp.
What tubes are you looking for?
...unlike 7ender that went off the WE and RCA application manual implementations at the back of the books (better time to market) Piazza who had military knowledge would buy tubes dirt cheap at military surplus auctions and design around them facilitating much better margins..
In this case I could use an NOS matched pair of 7868s price reasonably.....under 40 bucks..
Ancestry have sent me a hint that my maternal grandfather’s <Edit: Great Great> grandfather may have been born in the Champagne region. Hence my new found desire to at least try some Champagnes.
Off to the library sometime in the next few days to see if I can find the village name.
France -> Mauritius for about 100 years (guess some still there) -> GGrandfather (and his Mum & step Father) to Australia around 1889. My newest migrant to Australia.
In Mauritius the family evolved from being a French family to being a Creole family. It seems they mixed with a few girls of Malagasy or African heritage. I took the Ancestry DNA test as a way to see if the story was possibly true. It seems it may well be so. Pretty happy about it, though it has no impact on my day to day life.
Slaves and Convicts in my line... didn’t think I’d be able to say that!
Oh, and I tried this the other day.
Very presentable lager.
Yes. You. Do.Just great. Now I need to buy another book.

Not having much luck with that.
Damn near killed him! Sorry, misread that word...
The video was just a few posts above that one. Quoted material doesn't quote in new quotes.
in the interest of his well being, notice I refrained from suggesting a series rectifier resistor..

Found a Thunderbird classic Pro locally, for a pretty good price. I'm going to see if I can work it out... I've got to move an amp head to do it, and boy it's not much of a seller's market these days. We've spoken though, we'll see, she's a-callin'.
Wish me luck!!
Wish me luck!!
Glad to see I’m not the only one gigging a FSO here. I played my Casady in the second set, but no pics.
Fvck yeah!!, Is that RedStrands?
