Probably a dumb question but better safe than sorry & ask.My Bassman LTD has a rattling rectifier tube,I just wanna replace it with the same type (5AR4/GZ34) not switch to a 5AU4 or anything like that.

Thanx Arjay.

BTW I also forgot to thank you (& Supro too) for steering me towards getting the Bassman in the first place,miles better than the Blues Deluxe.

You're welcome, emanym......glad it worked out for you.

Once you get some decent glass into that 5F6-A you should be good to go for a few years.
