Hello all, newbie here with first post.
My question is in reguards to the differences in the vintage Blues Deville and the reissue. The reason I ask is because for some reason, my antique pc won't download the manual for the reissue, yet I have no problem getting the manual for the original. According to the manual, the only differences I notice are that the reissue doesen't have an output jack for an external speaker and the manual for the original needs 5881 power tubes as opposed to 6L6gc for the reissue. I just replaced the old tubes(Fender Groove tubes 6L6sv) with Mesa 6L6gc and am also wondering if I could be hurting the amp. I only replaced the tubes because one of them had burned out(became smokey grey and had NO glow).The amp actually didn't sound bad running just the one tube but, once I popped the Mesa's in...Whoa! HUGE difference! Thanks in advance for any info and best to all.

Hmmm....I got my DeVille in 1993, and it has 6L6GC's in it. MIne is the 2X12 version, but I don't think that makes a difference.
