Preamplifier

The JJ Electronic 12AY7 is a low microphonic tube built in the same rugged fashion as all JJ preamp tubes. This tube offers the classic warm 12AY7 sound with rich and balanced harmonics when pushed enough to break up. It’s a great choice for authentic tweed tones but can also help clean up amps when used in place of a 12AX7. Additionally, the JJ 12AY7 is a great replacement in 6072 microphones.

Great tube, my amp now has much more headroom.

I put it in a Black Face (Bassman but for guitar)amp to soften the punch a little, and smooth the distortion. I lost a little bit of power, but it is power I don't need so much these days. I get to turn it up a little louder and get more overdrive character at lower volumes.

As expected with the AY7 it produces a lot less gain than an AX7. It produces a lot more head room and produces a much tighter sound, which is something I think JJ's are known for. I've installed it in the 2nd gain stage of a class AB single channel amp, right after a Sovtek 12AX7WB
