RE: Guitar amp tube wear

Hi Peter, I'm assuming a little tweed is one that runs a single 6V6 output tube and is single ended/Class A. Being Class A it is always running the power tube the same. It won't matter on wear. If it was a larger push pull amp, ie has two or four output tubes, then if you cranked it to distort it would wear the output tubes faster.
