Hey guys, I have a 1973 MKII S/L on the bench with some wacky bias going on. I retubed it with KT77's (which was in it previously). When the amp came in it was at 60ma bias, too hot. Checked the original screen resistors and of course they were drifted way off spec. Replaced with all new 1K 5W 1% an...
