This is my Little Walter 89 with 9 pin 6L6 tubes.........This clip is from its maiden voyage and I loved it so much I bought it on the spot.....Sunday on the 2015 ACM's this is the same guitar and amp I used behind George Strait.....

As always, fantastic playing and beautiful sound, Paul!

That was awesome Paul... wish I could afford “1”, but if I had 10, I’d never sound that good... beautiful playing and beautiful tone!!!

All I can say is "DAMN!!!" I have to listen again and focus on the amp. Paul's playing on this is incredible.

Great sounding amp! I know Paul is known for his pick blocking but a few of those riffs had more of a palm blocked sound to them. Definitely something about the blocking or pick attack also producing a more vintage tone.

Paul, so that was you playing with George Strait on the ACM's and Mike Daily was faking it to your track?!? The tone sounded just like the original record to me.

Paul, you sound great no matter what amp you play. That great tone is in your hands...

Tommy White · Post by **Tommy White** » 23 Apr 2015 7:33 am

Yes! It's in his hands! I will say, in listening to the vid, the tone of the new amp seems more clean, fat and richer than previous Walter's I've heard you play through. Just the best ever, no matter what you use.

I’m with Tommy on everything he said. Fantastic.

Richard Sinkler · Post by **Richard Sinkler** » 23 Apr 2015 6:15 pm

That is quite a compliment from a tone monster like Tommy. Paul and Tommy set the bar for tone.

Great sound, great licks too.

WOW! I love the tone of that new amp, that was nice. I think the older Vince gets the better he gets.

Paul, That great tone is in your hands...

BTW:...What more can I say about you that hasn't been said yet...?

Great Tone & Touch

Genius.....

"Little Walter 89 with 9 pin 6L6 tubes"

Sounds great, but I am stumped as to what a 9 pin 6L6 is....is there a new tube out there?

The Little Walter site says nothing about it, or this amp!

Matthew Dawson · Post by **Matthew Dawson** » 5 May 2015 11:42 am

Maybe a 6BG6GA? I think these had the same innards as a Phillips 6L6GA but with a plate cap on top so you could jack up the plate voltage.
