Throw a Maxon OD808 in front of it and you're good to go

He says it's hard to access the board for minor repairs. They are on a pcb as no amp will be hand wired at this price point. Mine sounds great so I don't really think what if it breaks.

That guy is knowledgeable, but is critical of just about every amp he tears apart.

I wouldn't worry about any of the EVH amps - I can't think of any in particular that have had a rash of reported issues.

Thanks…and sound wise is it noticeable? I couldn't find any comparison online.

I have the MT15 and I think these 2 are probably quite similar otherwise I would buy it.

Didn't watch the video, but I know that the plate voltage is set fairly high on these so they eat tubes like crazy

That said, I purchased a 6l6 50w last deal and it was a super nice amp for the money. Decent cleans...ch2 was amaizing....ch3 was basically useless imo
