66 Traynor YBA-2 with Bendix 5992 Tubes A must See

dondoucette · 07-05-2009, 02:35 AM

So a couple of weeks back I scored a quad and a pair of Bendix 5992 (6V6) tubes...

Tonight I selected from my collection some cool NOS tubes for my Traynor, NOS 5Y3WGTA, Mullard Ecc83 and a pair of Bendix 5992. I took the amp out of it's chassis and plugged it into my Traynor 4x12 cab and installed the tubes, warmed up the amplifier for 5 minutes and played... Well I wish I could invite you all over to see and to listen to this amp, damn does it ever sound sweet and it looks cool to boot what with the 5992 tubes glowing blue.

SWEET!

Sound clips please!

Quit telling everyone about Bendix tubes, please...

They'd be hearing that amp and asking what special caps you're using. Then they'd say "Hey, you pull out these old tubes and put in some JJs and that thing will REALLY kick ass!"

Very nice. Sound Clips. You can do it from here:

Ya know... After VastHorizon aked for a clip I realized I really have no good way to get a recording of this or any amp!?!?! I can record guitar by plugging into my comp but I don't have a decent microphone around that would do the job.

I'll have to think on this a bit.
