Pulling tubes - can you put it back in?

[Gio]

You better make sure your amp is built to run on EL34. When handeling power tubes try not to touch the glass with your hands. Use a rag or a sock. It can damage the tubes or shorten the life of them. You will have ti rebias the amp.

Definitely use some cloth, or vinyl or latex gloves or a sock. Touching the tubes will shorten their life.

I have a sock in my sleeping bag!

Remember: "A TUBE AMPLIFIER HAS LIKE A BILLION VOLTS STORED UP" Even when it is off for hours. Be very careful touching things. And make sure it's unplugged. Rubber shoes and one hand and all that.

Make sure you're stepping in a puddle of water first.

And if the tubes are hot, just spray them with a little water.:ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF: Gio could become Frankenstein if he ain't careful.

I sprayed them with some water b/c they were too hot and now the amp doesn't work.

I can't wait to be granted access to the classifieds, now I have to buy a new amp thanks to fett

At least, you are alive!!!!!!!!! Really, tube amps can kill you if you aren't careful.

I got shocked and my heart stopped for a minute, but when I came to I was ready to rock

[fett]

Maybe, I should fuk with my amps. I could use a good jolt. Right now, all I have tube-wise is an old very good tube tester with lots of knobs. Maybe if I spit on a fork.........

[Gio]

I'm going to find a way to get regular light bulbs to fit in where the tubes go.

that way I can use my amp as a sweet lamp when I'm not using it
