I fired it up when I first got it, and one side had hum in it, but the other one sounded fine. There are no burnt or even brown "hot" areas. It does not look like it has been rewired in any way. Overall it looks like its in great shape. the tubes that dont work are,
1 power tube(the 3 that work, I beleve to be Telefunken EC83s, but I'm not sure, I'll check on the #)the 4th is broken.
1 6U8(I think the other one works, but I'm not sure. I'm not even sure its a 6U8)
2 12AX7s
I pretty sure the rectifier tube works(I dont have the # on me)
I thought It would be best to replace all of the tubes, just to make sure they all match.
I think what I'll do is take all of the tubes to a audio shope, and see if they'll test them for me(if I can find the time)
When they test them, can they tell what type they are?
