Traynor YCV 40 Gold Pin Option
Product Details
Want a very smooth and rich tone with less grit? This is the Gold Pin Option Retube Kit for the Traynor YCV 40. The preamp section uses three Gold Pin ECC83S's with one balanced for the phase inverter in V3. The default power tubes are a matched pair of the JJ 6L6GC's but you can configure this kit to use the JJ 5881's or KT77’s by clicking on the "Customize" button!
The Balanced Gold Pin ECC83S is located in V3 farthest from the power tubes.


The original YCV 40 amps prior to April of 2008 have a bias compensation circuit but it's just to balance unmatched power tubes. It does not adjust the plate current up or down, it is basically a fixed bias amp. These amps can use 6L6GC's in a moderate grade and the bias will be right where it should be. They can also use hot grades of the JJ KT77's to get the bias right and give a little more British flavor.

All YCV 40 amps post April 2008 are full adjustable bias. All you need to check and adjust the bias is a bias probe and a Multimeter, or our all-in-one Eurotubes "Pro One" bias probe that reads both the plate current and the plate voltage simultaneously. These are available under the "Related Products" tab.

You can use our Generic Bias Video for reference.

The video below explains the difference between bias probe types.
