Looking into getting a used drri, has a
60th Ann badge in the back, so I'm guessing
2005-2008 ish.
Amp sounds great, except lower volume
Than expected. Could it be v2 has a 12ay7,
They're selling it a gc so they kinda
frown on taking off tube covers.
Or could it be something worse.
Both 6v6gt r yellow sticker GT tubes
were glowing.
Btw, v1 channel sounds a little louder.

i tried it again.
1st time i was using a thin guitar cable, looked extremely cheap.
the vol was lower than usual, now not silent, though not loud.

this time, regular cable was used.
and a mim telecaster fsr blonde with maple neck.
now this was an awesome setup, now it sounded louder, removed the tube covers.
v1 and v2 had 12ax7s.
now im at a crossroads, where i may buy it or wait it out, and save up for a silver face dr
