The Avalon is a take on the 12ax7 channel of the c30 I believe but with the inclusion of some printed circuit boards to cut down on labour costs.. Having owned a C30 for 10 years a while back much of the magic with the amp seemed to come from the Ef86 drive channel for crunchy sounds. The 12ax7 chan...
