I need more of a 2 channel amp now so I tried the Rebel 30 and LOVED the clean channel but just couldn't jive with the OD channel. Sounds good for what it is but for me it was a little too dark, bassy and vintage whereas I need more modern and "tight". So I decided to hang on to my Rebel 20 and get a high gain pedal to work as my "channel 2" (maybe the riot or severe). I just hate parting with the R30 because the clean channel is so chimey, full, sparkly and so on.
Then I started thinking, I have almost had my R20 for 2 years so maybe the right set of replacement tubes can breathe some new life and add some sparkle to the clean side of my R20. Has any R20 owners had some great results with new tubes? If so, what was the combo that really worked? Are there certain brands I should stay away from?
Thanks!
