Anyone try Winged C EL34's lately? A friend of mine had his Marshall 100watt head retubed with some and loves the tone. How about 6l6's in this brand?

I've built a couple of SE amps around a Winged-C EL34 and I like them a lot.

I retubed a GH100L with 6L6GC "C" and the owner loved it...
I have a homemade plexi+hotswitch with them too... everyone seems to like it's tone a lot...

With Respect
