    Posted this in the stomp box, but thought I'd ask here too--this was in a tc electronics Tube Pilot pedal I got today. I want to try a JJ 5751 in there, but wanted to see what or if the "d" designation means anything. Is this just a normal-gain 12ax7?

    It doesn't mean anything. At least nothing youll ever find out about. If you like it use it. Or not.

    Thanks. I put a JJ 5751 in the pedal and like it a lot better; way less distortion and more useful range of the controls.
