Hi, Scott,

what difference do you feel between 6l6s and el34s?
which one you like the most?

Hope to see you soon in Brazil.
Thanks, Zep

6L6's are a bit more scooped - more like the Fender sound, great for blues. EL34's are the usual tubes in Marshall style amps, which in my opinion produce a better thick high gain tone for playing lines. I like both - I probably use my Marshall and Suhr amps more since I play mostly fusion, but I love the Fender sound for playing clean, or when I want that huge SRV type tone. Also, class A amps like the Suhr Badger sound great for blues.
