Groove Tubes 6L6B Quartet (Russian)

No longer available at zZounds
Get an old-time rock-and-roll sound with plenty of midrange punch when you install the 6L6B Quartet tubes from Groove Tubes in your amp.

The 6L6B is perhaps the most reliable of the currently made types of 6L6s, with slightly less power and a more aggressive edge when pushed into distortion. These are currently used for the GT Fender amp tubes.

6L6 Type (typical power ranges from 20 to 25 watts)
The Choice of most all medium powered Fender amps, and the many Fender "wannabe" amps. This specially designed pentode with a beam-forming electrode was invented by RCA and has many variations available. Its response is rounder, with a more pronounced midrange character, very chesty, and very old time rock 'n' roll.

"(Too Harsh) I can't get the good tube tone with these tubes, I'm not saying they are bad tubes but this is what came in the amp"

I'm taking these out and putting in the Gold Series Groove Tubes Gt-6L6R in and going to a Lower 1-3 GT Rating (Green) and see if this will help.
