Groove Tubes GT-6L6-CHP-R8 Power Tube
The most recent release of a totally redesigned 6L6C featuring addition of pure Nickel carbonized black plate construction, this is the same material used on the classic RCA Black Plate versions of the '50s. Further improvements on the design, include GT's exclusive heat sink wings to the plate assembly which improves reliability and more importantly stabilizes your tone and other performance characteristics when the tube is pushed to its higher power levels. This GT exclusive heat sink wing design has proven itself over almost a decade on the 30 watt GT-E34LS (the only 30 watt EL-34 type) and also on the 50 watt KT-88SV. Strong and very focused output as compared to many other 6L6 designs, this tube is highly recommended for "livening up" any stock Fender or Marshall amp coming with the common Russian 6L6R tubes, and it's also a great choice for that vintage tone but with improved punch from those GT heat sink wings on the plates!
