Build a Sunn Model T clone. Some questions. (EU)

Hi Guys

Yes, just bypass the cathode follower. The preceding stage will drive the EQ. TUT6 explains in detail why the CF is there and why it is such a tone killer in the places it is used. The only good place to use one is to drive a line out, or to buffer a pentode plate for maximum gain from the pentode.

Have fun

So the 5F6-A Bassman has a cathode follower driving the tone stack and it is a tone killer? The amp considered by many to be the best guitar amp of all time has a tone killer in it? Am I interpreting your statement correctly that this place is not where you should use a CF? Isn't the purpose to more closely match the input impedance of the tone stack since they used a lower value slope resistor,56K and some even a 33K. Isn't the CF an impedance buffer to help out with this? I'm a little confused here. It seems that most plate driven stacks have a 100K or even higher slope resistor and matches a conventional gain stage's output impedance better?
