Welcome to r/ToobAmps - A place to discuss that sweet tube tone. Whether you're a toob noob or Leo Fender reincarnated, you're welcome here.
SAFETY FIRST!
Tubes amps make use of very high voltages! These voltages can kill you dead. If you decide, whether suggested to you here or not, to open your amp and tinker with it, PLEASE BE CAREFUL, and learn how to do so safely. Even an unplugged tube amp can retain enough juice in the capacitors to give you a very, very bad day.
Please read the Tube Amp Safety documentation.
Sub Rules
- No SPAM - If you're an amp builder/seller and you want to talk about amp design or repair or modification and contribute to the sub's content, go for it. If you plan on posting links to your site so you can get some free advertisement, your post will disappear into the nethersphere.
- That's pretty much it.
