i had my vox for about 7-8 mo now and it seems like the tube is going out. what happens when the tube goes out? what do you recommend for a replacement tube?
 
Re: vox tubes

When the tubes go bad, either the sound quality will deteriorate dramatically, or the sound will cut out all together. I stick with Electro-Harmonix for all my tubes, but I'm sure others have a number of different recommendations.
 
Re: vox tubes

If a power tube goes down in a bad way, it can take some bits with it, and a HT fuse if you're lucky.

And, yes, inside are more than a single tube. A tech is best.
Your'e looking at 12ax7 and EL84 valves, and numbers depend on which Vox you have.

Oh, of course, you might have one of those AD amps with just the one little tube for the preamp. In that case, go get three various ones, and taste them to your liking. Theyre cheap.
