I have a Fender HR Deluxe and I just looked at my 6L6 tubes in the back to see what color label they were, and to my surprise, they don't have any label on them at all. Just plain clear glass.

Any way of being able to tell what color label equivalent they are by looking at them?

And if I get different tubes, how do I adjust the bias on this amp? (Yes, I'm clueless about this stuff.)

Dump the Groove Tubes.
Go to www.eurotubes.com for instructional videos on biasing.

I used JJ's in my HRDlx biased at around 85-88mv. If you don't know what you're doing, let a tech handle it. There are high voltages present in the amp that can kill you.
