How often should I revalve/service my Fender twin??

Hi everyone,
I bought new my fender 65 twin Reverb 2 years ago and have played just over 100 gigs with it. I also rehearse with it about twice a week as well.

Despite its regular use it's still going strong and I've never had any problems with it. Someone mentioned to me recently that I should get it serviced and even revalved, but I've always thought why fix a problem when it aint wrong!?

Im quite naive when it comes to looking after gear and knowing about these kind of things so can anyone recommend what I should do in terms of servicing/revalving??

thanks for your help!

When the tone of the amp changes or the tubes start making noise; then change them. Otherwise, don't!

If you experience a change in tone/volume it may be time....
