@VHTStark i have an MC2 2016 era and its beastly but the highs are just too ear pearcing lol i normally keep the contour back to between 4 and 5....
But the hybrid i got recently is different.... i didnt know till lately trying to do a comparison between the hybrid kt150 vs mtl mk2 kt200.... the tone didnt open up till i crank the contour on the hybrid kt150 and now it turns to a whole new different monster rivaling the MTL kt200 lol
The contour at 8 and beyond on the hybrid just wins vs it on MC2... it didnt turn to super ear pearcing machine and it remains compressed in a good way that ya could do liquidy solos ....
The MC2 i got is an overkill !!! Lol its the only amp i like it with that super flat eq dark smooth JJecc83s .... it just makes my MC2 more ear friendly.... i also didnt find the MC2 with JJ EL34L that great... its good but still too thin for some leads works.... mine came as what it was with a quartet tungsol el34b .... so far it sound good ...
I have no idea has anybody tried 6l6 on their earlier MC2 ?
