Use this JJ / Tesla 12AT7 to tame the beast that is a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe / DeVille
If you have a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe / DeVille amp and are looking to tame the beast, rather get a more acceptable practice amp for home use, try replacing the V1 preamp tube with one 12AT7. I tried this JJ / Tesla 12AT7 in place of the first 12AX7 preamp tube to lower the gain slightly at the first amp stage. It makes a considerable difference and keeps the clean and master volume from being too touch-sensitive and being WAY too loud when slightly above 1 on the gain level. It’s a cheap alternative to a hot-plate attenuator and doesn’t require re-wiring the internal guts of your amp. Simply swap out the first 12AX7 tube for a 12AT7. This JJ / Tesla tube (as well as their entire kit) is extremely clean sounding with no microphonics or tube rattle. Works well for me on my 1999 / 2000 early Made in USA Fender Hot Rod Deluxe amp. Love it.

Tubular!
This went into the power tube section of my Fender Greta baby amp, paired with a Tung-Sol 12AX7 in the preamp, and the difference is unbelievable. I’ve always heard folks talking about replacing tubes, but I never thought it was worth it. Turns out it’s incredibly easy, and the difference in terms of clarity, clean headroom, the musicality of the breakup and overall tone is jaw-dropping.

It tamed my Hot Rod Amplifier!
I purchased this preamp tube to tame my amplifier. My Fender Hotrod Deluxe is manufactured for performance at the venue, but not for practice in the home. I switched the tube out with this little gem and now I can tone it down for playing inside my home for practice. The change out does limit volume adjustment beyond 4 or 5, so changing back to the original tube is necessary for performance in larger venues. The tube also dampens the amp’s built-in effects. But it has virtually no impact on pedal effects.
