Oh, and one other question: is there a suitable replacement tube other than the 12AX7WB? Some other member of the 12AX7 family, or perhaps a 5751? Is there some reason I should steer clear of other tubes, other than the stock 12AX7WB?
Thanks!
So there’s no way to tell which tube is bad from the description of the effects of swapping the tubes? Like maybe one of the tubes is responsible for the drive circuitry, and one for some filtering, perhaps?
I’ve downloaded the schematics, but, erm, well, it’s been a long time since I took that electronics course in college, and, well…
