Yellow Jackets plug into the power tube socket of your amp and replace the power tube you are using with an EL84. This version will turn "Class AB Pentode" amps into a "Class A Triode" circuit, and can be used as long as the plate voltage is under 520 volts. As THD says, this covers 98% of guitar amps in use. They can also be used in home audio equipment. The "YJSD Triode" model of Yellow Jacket provides further power reduction and smoother sweeter output distortion, reducing the amplifier's power by 70% to 90%. They can be used to replace 6V6, EL34, 6L6 and 6550 tube types without modification or rebiasing. In amps with four power tubes, you can replace two of the tubes with Yellow Jackets for a partial power reduction. The EL84 tubes are included. Using this style of Yellow Jacket will allow you to attain sweet, overdriven tube sounds while keeping the volume at a neighbor-friendly level. Total height of socket and tube is 5 3/8" or 14cm.   Home > DIY Corner > THD Products > Yellow Jackets Click image to enlarge Availability: Out of stock.
