Anybody know which tubes James Hetfield uses?

[locoed]

As in brand and which tube,does he use 6L6? Despite the fact his rig is pretty big,its still pretty simple but man that sound is huge.

Knowing the Jaymz, he probably uses EL84's, but that is just an educated guess.

EL84s or EL34s?

EL84s or EL34s?

WHOOPS! Meant EL34s. Little off my game today, bit of a head cold.

I'm pretty sure it's still EL34's, but I haven't physically seen it since 07, so he may have had it changed...

i saw a video of one of the guys who works at Mesa re-tubing all of James amps and getting him ready for the road,it was
during st anger tour,but i could'nt see what tubes he was using,just curious,it was a really cool vid,wish i knew where i saw
it,im assuming EL-34s in his VH4's?
thanks
