RE: Clean tube pins and sockets...

Posted by Try1256 on February 16, 2017 at 15:53:10:
Thanks Jonesy. I am certainly not an electonics expert but I dont think a bad tube on either side would cause hum in both. I have cleaned the pins and sockets and the 6v6 are new. The 6922's are ElectroHarmonix and the were in the unit when I purchased it. I was told they had about 100 hours on them. I have two other sets of 6922's and it doesnt really change when I swap them out.
