I was playing through my blues junior that I just got the other day and all of a sudden this high pitched whine started coming from it, after a few minutes it went away. Did one of the tubes go microphonic?

Do I need to replace them all? they are from 1995. Which brand would you reccomend for an early breakup since I can't turn it up too far.

My personal opinion: Replace them all, after all they are 13 years old.

Usually a question like this starts a big debate on which tubes
are the best...
Well, the problem is that Tubes are like sports teams;
everyone has their own favorite, whether you take all of them into account,
or just those that have that certain tone & reliabilty you're looking for.
Tubes will sound different from amp to amp.
I believe in buying good quality tubes, but some here will debate this.
Check with an online tube dealer- see what they have to say. :wink:
