    Do you ever have odd volume behavior? For example, I'll turn it on one day with the clean volume around 2, it will be loud. Then another day I'll turn it on, settings unchanged, and it will be half volume and I'll have to bring it up to 3 or 4, which normally is enough to shake the drywall, just to get a normal level.

    I have so many old tubes, I've considered turning them into Christmas ornaments by soldering a hook onto the feet. They're too cool looking to toss but are no good in the amp.

    Life is also a lot better with an attenuator between the power out and the speaker.

      Cant say i’ve had that particular problem, except for gain. This makes me think i have a problem in my preamp section.

      I wish i could switch out tubes for 2 of my amps. But they got EXPENSIVE, especially cause i favored Sovteks cause they used to be the cheapest. Also all my amps are Sovteks so i thought it was funny

        God the sovteks. I also like soviet watches and two of my interests are directly fucked from the war.

        I mostly play acoustic stuff now, I have an alright manouche style guitar that I play more than most of my guitars now.
