Spare Tube & Fuse Kit
Like A Spare Tire In The Trunk
In a custom padded Tuki pouch, we assemble burned-in matched power tubes together with a new old stock pentode preamp tube that is performance tested. Also included is a driver preamp tube and rectifier, plus a pair of both fuses. Spare kit for the ME18R includes two more preamp tubes, a 12AU7 and 12AX7. This pouch can be mounted inside your speaker cabinet or stowed in your gig bag.
