I wanna try this. Where did you get the old Tun-sols? Just checked TubeDepot. They have NOS Tung-Sols @ $900+ a quad. Not sure I'm into it at that price. Do you know if the re-issue Tung-Sols are worth while? Anyway, totally agree with your assessment of the Model T. I've seen it described countless times as having tons of clean headroom. It doesn't...not at all. There's always a bit of grime and I think that's why it sounds so damn good with Fuzz (I use a green BMP and it kills) and/or a Rat (I use a Volt thrower which I believe is a Rat clone of sorts... and it kills).
