[QUOTE="El_Thwatez, post: 27475, member: 1142"] Im suprised to hear that you think yours sounds a little muddy! Mine sounds incredibly tight - just put a new JJ - 12AT7 Gold in the power and its made it a little more sparkly at the top end too! RD Steve made a point though, what speakers do you use? I use some very old Carlsbro powertones (with the aluminium dust covers) and they sound great with this amp, I think primarily because they are very crisp. If you really want to change the voicing of the T2, you could run a high-end distortion/overdrive pedal in 'parallel' through the FX loop and then mix appropriately to get a good tonal balance between the original T2 preamp and the additional pedal, effectively this creates the effect of 2 preamps running at the same time. For my lead channel I do this with an EH hot tubes and it just fattens it up a little more and changes the mid-voicing a little to make it slightly creamier... [/QUOTE]
