My amp is a studio .22, and she needs new tubes (2 in the power section, 5 in the preamp).
But i dont know what to get!
I know she takes el84's in the power section. But what type? I also read somewhere that it was auto biasing? does that mean i need to buy a certain type of tube?
Would like to replace the preamp tubes as well, it as 12ax7's now....can i use any type of preamp tube i want?
If i could change anything about the amp, i'd like a bit more clean headroom (if possible). And its a bit noisy at times...would a certain type of tube be less susceptible of noise?
Could anyone make some recommendations?
And once i get the tubes, if someone could be nice enough to show me how to replace em, that would be tops ( i have a guitar tech down the road if you think its too risky though!)
Also, i read one of our forum member's contributions regarding carrying spare fuses in case one breaks (not a beer can!).....what fuses do they take ?
Cheers, larry
