It's probably somewhere in this section, but I might as well make a point of it. Does anyone know what tubes are coming with the LTD SRZs? Does anyone (Myles, perhaps) have tube recommendations?

I've heard good things about the Brimar 12AX7's in the SRZ. I had an old Mullard in V1 that sounded nice as well.

I love Brimars! Best tube for Marshall style amps from all I have heard on the SRZ-65 side of my 6545. RFTs are great as well. Of course if you are looking for new production GT-ECC83s and GT-12AX7M tubes are great too. Also would be good to upgrade to an NOS rectifier. The mis-labeled Sylvania's at KCA are great options for this or an GZ34/5AR4 equipped amps. For the money NOS pre-amp and rectifiers are a great choice. They last so long that the extra money up front is money well spent. This is, of course all, IMHO....YMMV

The old brown base Tesla tubes (not JJ) were a fantastic EL34. I think there are still some NOS around. I used these in my marshall and rack.
The new JJ KT77's might be worth a shot too.

I wonder if Myles is still offering his free-tubeset-and-biasing package with a visit to his infamous "House of Amps"!

I wonder if Myles is still offering his free-tubeset-and-biasing package with a visit to his infamous "House of Amps"! You bet. For folks in my area that want to drop by for a free amp checkup and bias if necessary just drop me a note and we will set something up. On the free tube deal .... it is sort of a matter that if I do not like what I find in your amp I may give you a few different things to try that I might feel are better. The tubes the Doc has as standard now are pretty darn nice though.
