Swamp Rs and screen grid Rs affecting tone?

Hi dear forum members,

Has anyone experience by using difference values of the grid stoppers and screen grid Rs how they're affecting tone / feel?
Can you make a Shuguang KT66 sound more like a GEC by chosing certain values of these resistors?

Cheers

Dominik

the resistors on pin 5 make no audible difference unless you use very high values (typically above 10k), however, they do remove potential osciallation

resistors on pin 4 affect tone and response a lot. you can lower the 1k a little if you have low voltages (e.g. 370-400v).
