I recently scored a V2 Mazerati head from 2005 in super condition. Guy that had it sold it to me for a steal. All she needed was a little cleaning up and touchup on the cab corners and BOOM she looks brand new. I had NO IDEA this thing had the amount of clean headroom that is has! Wow.......interestingly, upon checking the preamp tubes, it had ECC81s in both positions. I was wanting to get the 5751 back in it and wanted to know if that would clean it up even more? I dont want to loose any headroom. Thanks for any info out there!!

I put a JJ GZ34 in place of the 5AR4 and seemed to gain a little headroom. I also swapped JJ EL84s into the power section and got some more. This won't NEED a lot of headroom... If it's like my Ghia, which began overdriving at the theshold of pain, this will go much further up the volume chain before topping out.
