I need some help in selecting trafos for my 312 project. I haven't started yet, but am sourcing parts. There's so many different options I'm finding for the input trafo that I don't know where to begin. It's not like I can go to a shop that has a rack full of handmade gear with all the different options and listen to them and say, "yeah, I like that one best". So I'd like y'all's opinion. If it helps, I'll be using this pre primarily for rock guitars and some vocals, but mostly electric guitars (kinda why I chose the API for this).
So....any suggestions on which trafo sounds best for this type of application? Beefy, not too shrill or sharp, smooth mids is what I'm lookin' for.
Oh, and if there's any other parts/procedures I could know about to help obtain that kind of sound, I welcome those suggestions, too.
