When you bought your Blue Tube did you try the Real Tube as well? I like the
sounds I can get out of it a little better. I don't have one, but have
compared them several times with the Real Tube coning out on top each
time.I was going to buy one at NAMM this year, but Tube Works was not there
as far as I could tell.I have a line on a used one that i am trying to work
out a trade for.
