5153 el34 stealth tube questions

[bhuard75]

- anybody know if V1 is shared by all three channels?
- anybody try dropping mullard 12ax7s in the blue channel?
- Any success with switching/swapping power tubes..... el34s or 6ca7s?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure about the power tubes, but 5150 III's preamp tubes can change tones pretty noticeable with a swap. And yes v1 should affect all three, but look at the diagram on EVH site

Thx, didnt realize they/EVH had layouts and schematics posted on their site.
