Hey,
Today when I turned on my Peavey 5150 there was a really loud hum and I coulnt figure out what it was. I checked all the cables and I have a feeling its the tubes. How would I know if the tubes are bad? The symptoms I have are very loud hum and very low signal.
If it is the tubes, how should I go about getting new ones...should I buy them and put them in myself? Also what tubes are good? Im assuming I should go and play amps with different tubes.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Matt
