Hi all, new to the forum Smile

I got a used Peavey Classic 30 a few months back, my first tube amp.

I still have the tubes that came with it inside but recently the amp has been making a high pitched noise for about 3 or so mins when i put it on and i have a feeling its to do with the tubes needing changed.

I have never done this before. Well i know how to put the tubes in and take them out but im wondering do i need to change them all or just some?

It is best to just do them all, and replaced the power tubes with matched ones. That is the most expensive way, though. Wink

Initially I would change all the tubes at the same time.
