Groove Tubes GT-6550-C Medium Power Amplifier Tube
Power and quality should mean long life.Excellent response, yet it’s easier to push into distortion than “A” version, a little harder sounding than “C”.
A softer version of the older USA 6550A, with a nice distortion character. This tube has a distortion that is between a 6L6GC and a 6550A. In older Marshall’s that have 6550’s, this tube will give you more compression and distortion at lower levels than the other 6550 offerings. This tube is terrific in Class A amps such as the GT Solo Single when you want to have a lot of output for smaller live venues. Many people prefer these in some Marshall amps where more clean headroom and output is desired.
