I've owned many a tube amplifier from hi-fi stereo to musical instrument versions. Never have I destroyed one in all my fussing and farting around with them. And for that matter the only, the absolute only problem I ever experienced with a tube amp was to an expensive McIntosh that decided to re-bias itself so the entire innards of the final tubes glowed orange! But that was an easy fix and then back to normal. The 3 solid state instrument amps I've had, all presented me with servicing them at least once! Only my Kustom solid state amp has held up faithfully over the many years. But I'd instantly trade it, along with Nigel & Audio Guru's souls, for a Marshall head!GtarPlaya11 said:I think they do it because it's needed to keep from destroying the horribly overrated and erroneously valued TUBE Amplifier (strains of 'there I said it again'). I don't want to destroy my tube amplifier..I LIKE my tube amplifier.
