        JJ E34L's in my JTM60. Love em'.

        JJ and EH 12AX7's in the pre.

        If the 30 is like the 60, it needs to be biased. The bias post is a bit hard to find, you have to be looking at the chassis from the side to see the blue bias pot.

        ((tube max dissipation wattage / amp plate voltage) x % of max dissipation wattage) x 1000 = bias current in mA
