I've seen people say taking off the preamp tube covers changes the tone. I was thinking about doing this to my modded marshall. What all will it do if anything?

It will start 31 pages of never ending angry threads at TGP. Here, we'll have a few laughs and chuckles about it and move along.

that 31 page never ending thread about preamp tube covers was HERE. :doh:

FWIW, I can't hear much of a difference, and I consider myself tonally perceptive.
 
This subject is one of high sensitivity to many proud men.

Oh yeah, it was :doh: Senior moment.
 
Post it on Mythbusters forum... let's settle it once and for all. :lol: :LOL:
 
The type of shoelaces you have will affect tone, too. TRUE STORY!
 
Even I have had my head beaten about this topic at some point, so I'll just stick with the first reply. Take 'em off and make up your own mind. Quick, before someone starts trolling, or people start taking it seriously.

The AxeFx II has preamp tube cover simulation


There's also a Toneprint for it on the TC Electronics site.

Man, i can't imagine how much forum street credit one must get from having their very own Toneprint.
