  • Looks boss.

    Quiz question:

    I'm near Stratford Westfield now, I have only public transport as I've just dropped off a Zipvan.

    I need new valves for the Fender Champ. Can I get them and get home to Forest Gate in the next hour? If so, where?

    Go...

  • Just saw this. Would have been unlikely I'd have thought. The only place that used to stock a selection of valves in town was Regent Sound but they were pretty pedestrian; Groove Tubes and EHs. Plus 6V6s aren't anywhere near as popular as EL84s and 6L6s so I'd be suprised if they had any of them.

    I'd just place an order from Watford Valves for some nice NOS bits. They probably sell a Champ kit for not that much. I long since stopped buying cheap new Chinese and Russian valves. I found it was far better to spend a bit more on some nice old European toobs and have them last ten times longer without going tinkly and microphonic.
