Tubes for Fender Amp

Hi everybody,
does anyone know what kind of tubes Keith uses for his amps? Does he use the usual Fender tubes or did he change them for example to Mesa Boogie tubes?

I think the closest we got to that subject, can be found in this thread:

Okay! Many thanks for your answer!
Do you know if it is possible to replace a original Fender Blues Deluxe speaker with the Celestion speakers, that you discussed in the other topic? I ask because the original ones have 40 Watt and the Celestions more.

If the new Celestion can handle more power, then there's no problem.
the sound will change though, b/c a full driven speaker adds some own sound.
good or bad - thats up to you.
just make sure the impedance matches. it's 8 ohm, I think.

Using Celestions' should be no problem Henrik. As the esteemed open-g points out make sure the speaker impedance matches which is indeed 8 ohms. I have a Blues Deluxe and its a nice amp once you replace the master volume and volume pots with audio tapers as well as swapping the input jacks! Rock on!
