Best demo. Demonstrates exactly the effect of each knob and switch. I just swapped mine from EL34 to 6L6. I’ve already got Marshall’s that do the EL34 thing just great. This amp seems to have really well balanced harmonic mids and really shines with 6L6’s.

[@anonymoususer3496]

This sounds so much better than the muddy EL34s. Now I'm really considering this amp.

[@jensenbyron1401]

I realize I'm quite randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to stream new series online ?

[@redstripe41j]

All I can say is holy shit. I'm totally into that tone. I guess 6L6 is the way I'd have to go in that amp.

[@gentlewolf1279]

I have this amp and have run both... the 6L6 setup up is better for big chunky chords and riffs where I found the EL34 did better with leads and more percussive palm mutes and riffs. Cheers

[@milliesdad8322]

Have 6v6s in mine now. Will no doubt run 6L6s in this when those babies burn out!

[@julianjannetta450]

Mark Is a Cards Fan how do you find the 6v6 for leads?

[@seasidewalktosand6567]

The TC-100 with 6L6 is where this amp roars particularly with the norm setting Just opens the amp and gives it oomph!

[@jordansage9655]

looks like you could use a hand. great demo and recording set-up. I prefer 6l6's in this amp for channels 2 + 3.

[@draper858]

Sick f'ng tone! I wasn't considering a tc 50, till I saw this!

[@justinTime077]

I can’t do hearing the same ish over and over. It’s like ice picks to the ear, and I love this amp.

[@jettsom]

I have a Fractal Axe-FX III and the TC-100 is my favorite preset for high gain territory. What I've done is put a 5 bands graphic EQ (with the mandatory V-Shape ala Mark series) in the loop and it sounds glorious! Might actually grab the head eventually if I ever found it at a good price.

[@justinTime077]

Yeah, I actually sold my Axe Fx 3 to buy the amp.

[@markk9184]

That sounds awesome!!! Nice demo...

[@breukelenman]

Great tone! I've been thinking about swapping out the EL34s in my TC-50 for 6L6s. Which Mesa 6L6s did you use? Did you notice any drop in volume with the 6L6s?

[@karymwillemsen5564]

Very very useful video thank you for taking the time to make this.

[@ChopTonesOfficial]

Thanks for watching!

[@MarkoPavicMusic]

Great demo👍🏻

[@markgooch1715]

This was a great demo! This amp sounds great. I’m a Marshall guy and would love to hear if it can get close to that Kerrang.

[@johndeschain2156]

Well done.

[@tman6495]

6l6's give this amp more "beef"...swapped mine out!

[@emnyc4592]

Hi. Which 6L6 tubes did you use? STR 425, 440, 441, 443 or 445? Thanks

[@glane0139]

what mesa 6l6's do you recommend?

[@chasingtone5748]

Does the Friedman BE-50 have as much gain as the TC-50?

[@anonymoususer3496]

No. Less gain, but it sounds/feels pretty different. Friedman is more hot rodded Marshall and brighter, the Mesa is darker sounding. IMO The Mesa is the better amp and is a little cheaper but built as good or better.

[@prsclark]

Sounds good. How do you set your mics? Thanks

[@jaysteinberg9163]

Are the pickups in the RGA the stock Fusion Edges?

[@obelisco1089]

stock preamp tubes? it sounds gainier than mine ,but could be the p90s i usually have.

[@ChopTonesOfficial]

Totally stock!

[@Starch1b2c3d4a]

How about 6v6’s...?

[@Muiretta]

Is it possible to do an EL34 version of this video?

[@ChopTonesOfficial]

Already done ;)

[@Muiretta]

Do you have the link that would be great. Thanks You folks rawk.

[@ChopTonesOfficial]

Please search just "Choptones TC-50 EL34" :)

[@gilmacevers253]

Congrats...you turned an EL-34 Triple Crown into a 6L6GC Dual Rectifier by buying more tubes! Why not just buy that first!? You aren't even driving the power amp enough to make much of a difference.

[@Astaroth_Belial]

It sounds like a TC-50 with 6L6’s, not a dual rectifier. You’re not going to get these types of cleans, tweakability, or tightness out of a typical dual rectifier.

[@chrisvanheusen5202]

Bought this 2 weeks ago and it absolutely sucks!!! 👎 Gave it to my friends kid so he could practice his guitar playing... That's about all it's good for really. 😎

[@davesmith4757]

Probably cause you only know about meat pies.

[@kyleelrod3008]

Dood ur so sick dood

[@Soprano_661]

No you didn’t

[@bradders56]

Gosh what an awful noise.Whatever happened to Hank Marvin?

[@clemguitar63]

We've came a long ways baby!
