My experience is, it will have blown the line fuse and most likely the bias resistor that goes with the blown tube. Pull the fuse & check it for continuity.Resistor replacement is pretty easy, if you're good enough with a soldering iron. I don't have the value on me, but perhaps another member does...
It would be interesting if someone has determined WHY this amp will not tolerate Svet/JJ EL34s; the Sovteks seem to be the only ones that'll live. I've heard speculation that it's a heat problem related to the power tubes being horizontal; don't know if that's true. Makes some sense, though.
Regards,
Kevin
