    Weird 70's era SG 2 x 12 cab

    I remember those. But know very little about the SG company except they were owned by Gibson.

    Looks like it may be official, =C= now defunct.

    I like the Shuguangs much better than the SED's anyway.

    Mojotone 5 Lug Rocker Switch Problem

    Hard to say without seeing it in person, but on the pic of the old switch it appears the tabs are pointing to the left and on the new switch the tabs are pointing right. Do you have the switch upside down or are the terminals numbered the same as the old switch? I believe you have the switch...

    New Orange products for 2014

    I love Orange but their prices are not based on reality for the average player. I did own 2 Tiny Terrors and sold them both. Someday I'll find that used Thunderverb 50 at a steal price.

    Since the 50 watt Gold is only a few dollars more that is the one I would get.

    You can, but it's a bad habit to get into.

    Help with schematic

    Well you could parallel resistors across those you have in there to get the schematic values and see if you like the results. If not remove them.

    Lowering Heater Voltages

    I'm not sure why this would bother you. It is within tolerance and my thought is that "fixing" the problem will be more trouble than it's worth.

    Help with schematic

    Why change them if you like the way it sounds? Amp makers often change the value of components mid-production without notice.

    DSL 15/6v6 biasing??

    So let's do the math: 14/417=.033 X .7=.023 So -23mA is the most you would want (70%) so at 18-21 you are doing fine.

    Need tube help

    The Shuguang EL34B's are the best thing going in EL34's right now IMO. I keep trying other EL34's and keep coming back to the Shuguang's.

    Honestly, how important is biasing?

    But isn't that the idea behind Groove Tubes and others? Buy some tubes rated 5 and bias your amp then as long as you use 5's from Groove Tubes you never have to bias again. Or so the premise is. Perhaps they buy Groove Tube 5.

    Honestly, how important is biasing?

    Could be that Joe buys his tubes in bulk all rated the same so that once biased the tubes can just be changed without biasing again.

    Electro Harmonix EL34 vs. JJ E34L

    Just tried a pair of JJ EL34's in my H&K and they only stayed in for one band rehearsal and back in the Valve Art EL34B's went. JJ's made my amp sound thin. I learned my lesson. Gonna stick with the Shuguang EL34B's.
