It sounds like one of the sockets was dirty and reinserting the tubes helped you get a good connection again. Put some contact cleaner on the pins of the tubes when you put them back in and you... |

My most important (to me) piece of gear for getting a good tone that I like out of my 6505+ is my EQ pedal. But I do have JJ tubes, so if your tubes are bad then you should get those taken care of... |

Yeah I asked about trading in my carbon copy. They said they could sell it for 80 or 90 so they would give me less than that. I don't remember how much. Probably 50 or so. I would sell it on ebay/... |

When you check them out, ask if you can use an overdrive pedal with it. That's how a lot of players get their compressed high gain tones (along with a compressor in some cases). It really changes the... |
