Took this out of my Jackson Dinky, works and sounds fine just wanted to try an A8 Arcane pickup. Will obviously cut a deal off-Reverb for RT'ers.

Aesthetically it's amazing.
Tonally it sounds great and has extra resonance. So it's awesome to make amps without a depth knob sound bigger (amazing with a Marshall). But if you want surgical tight you'd probably want something with less resonance so that you could dial it back in with your...
Microphony testing is only for preamp tubes...
I'm not going to say I haven't had some inconsistent results with noise testing preamps, but best 2 out of 3 has solved my problems. Also lot of variability in manually tapping them since your force is going to change every time.

I have a pair of Tungsols I could theoretically try in my MCII, but gonna wait for some folks to chime in here on their results first.
I saved mine in my phone then set it to auto-decline his calls.
Not sure what the point of them are, never the lowest price and I can find more info on gear with 30 seconds on the internet than chatting for 15mins with him.
Not an expert, but researched a bunch before buying one, and I think those are just a smaller run from like the late 80s. Probably a red knob era circuit.
What I really want to know, when the Jose is switched off, how good of a 100w Plexi is it?
