Best place to buy vavles, and quickly!
Hi all,
amp has shat itself, one power valve is glowing like a portal into hell. The glow follows the valve when I move it so seems to be the valve itself, not something in the circuit. Amp is biases correctly.
I need a pair of el84s quick smart, or i'll have to get down to the local music store and buy a new amp, which I really don't want to do.

I love a happy ending.
Sadly it usually costs extra.

You in Masterton Ben ? I'm just down the road and have a spare pair of EL84's if your in a hurry.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

You sir, are a champion. I forgot you were just down the road. I've bought a set from MP, will try them when they arrive. If your's are surplus then I'd be keen to grab them as a backup set

They are my backup set, just thought if you were in a hurry you could borrow them while you wait for your new ones.
