Want a very rich and smooth tone with less grit? This is our Gold Pin Option Retube Kit for the Hughes & Kettner Switchblade 100 Heads. The preamp section uses two Gold Pin ECC83S's with one balanced for the phase inverter in V2. The default power tubes are a matched quad of the JJ Electronic E34L’s but you can configure this kit to use the JJ EL34II's, EL34’s, KT77’s or Big Bottle 6CA7’s by clicking on the "Customize" button.
The newer amps with the "TSC" circuit are auto bias which works pretty well so all tubes listed are plug and play. Amps without the "TSC" circuit are adjustable bias and all you need to check and adjust the bias is a Multimeter and a bias probe, or our all-in-one octal "Pro One" bias probes (which reads plate voltage and plate current simultaneously). These are available under the "Related Products” tab as a pair.
You can use our Generic Bias Video for reference. The video below explains the difference between bias probe types.
