Changing Tubes on Vacuum Tube Amplifiers : Pulling Pre-Amp to Change Tubes on an Amplifier

[GunsNSnakepits]

To be honest, I'm kinda surprised they actually did something other than talk on these videos. Even though he just pulled the tubes out of a hole...

[mmim4]

is it ok the have different tube brands preamp and power tubes?

[mmim4]

why is one under the metal cover?

[RexKeltoi]

@mmim4

A tube shield is a device used to filter out noise causing radio frequency interference (RFI) from vacuum tubes in electronic circuits. Most tube shields are cylindrical covers which slip over a vacuum tube with a ground tag or base that connects to the tube's socket ground point. The tube shield works on the same principle as a Faraday cage, i.e., absorbing and cancelling out interference before it is picked up by the tube.

What exactly is the "next video"? Is there a name or number? Why can't I find it to the right of the media player screen or on it when the video is over? Your youtube channel gets an F for (complete absence of) user service.

Yeah. Mesa, Arizona! Whoooooo. AMERICA!

[JDX45]

How much does a tube cost? Where can I find those tubes? Are there many Solid State amps on the market? Thank you for your time :D

[theonlyone365]

jeez, you idiots sound like you want to know it all but are to lazy to watch different videos.

think if you needed to know how to take out a tube but didn't want to have to watch several videos just to get 15 secs out of a 10 min video.

so STFU you ignorant pricks. this guy is doing everybody a favor by passing along knowledge

First write the first letter of your name

See the next video to see how to continue.

[dumapies]

wow how about u forgot to mention that you must wait after playing even if you unplug the amp because tube amps can store enough electricity to kill you

[Zhorellski]

How long do you have to wait (hours?) before it's safe to change tubes?

[InFuriatedShadows]

whats the point of having a metal cover on the preamp tubes?

[djbro16]

idk how many amps there are, but I would guess.. so stupid people dont die..

[leetbarker]

@InFuriatedShadows so the universe wont explode

[taygoo13]

this is one stupid mother fucker

[12345678ix]

lol

[nasfras]

Whoa, check out the snazzy comb over.

[slimyesli]

would'nt you mind putting part 1 part 2 it would be hell lot easier to find

[BlackwoodV]

maybe it would be wise to warn people to watch out on how the preamp tubes are oriented and write down the pinout..

also, the title - pullin pre-amp??? I bet some poor guy will actually pull his preamp out...

[paddan91]

PLEASE Expertvillage, why can't you complete the lesson in ONE single video?. It's so damn confusing to find the right video.

[sesstreets]

Not entirely true though. Many modern high gain amps also have rectifier tubes.

[BarackOterrorist]

hey unless you already found out

i would go to a site that has guitar forums and ask someone there

this guy in the video wont ever see your comment

you should look at SVETLANA 6L6GC power tubes theyre pretty nice

[shaterproofblosm]

hello there, im ascing you this becous it seemes you know a tad bit about tubes, i ahev a randall RH150G3 head with one single 12ax7 tube in the preeamp but the gain is kinda crapping up on me, do you know of a good tube for high gain?

[chriscoooley]

a JJ tube should do the trick, i just put one in my marshall valvestate and it helps the sound. especially if you're looking to make your tone slightly darker

[shaterproofblosm]

i was mistaken, it was a 12AT7 then i went to music shop and they gave me a 12AX7 wich made it more tone full, more gain, less muddy. and just better in soo many ways
