Hi all. I own both a bassman '59 reissue and a hotrod deluxe. I've been playing through both (via stereo POD output) for 2-6 hour practices @ volume levels 8-9. On BOTH amps, I've started to notice that the power lights have started to dim. Then, as I strum chords, the power light becomes brighter. When I stop playing, the power light goes dim again. Now when I turn on the bassman, the power light doesn't light up at all. Is this a sign that I need a tube replacement, or is the light just burning out? At the end of the practice, the bassman also seems to be a bit more distorted. I've only owned the amp for 2-3 months. Let me know your thoughts.

Probably the light is just burning out. The fact that the amp sounds more distorted after some time is probably simply because it has warmed up completely.
