Question for guitarists: How important is biasing when changing tubes?[views:3808][posts:9]_________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 3:37pm - legionofthedying ""] Im planning on changing out my power tubes (EL34s) on my Framus Cobra head soon and wanted to see if any guitarists out there had any information about biasing? Im replacing the tubes with the same kind so is a rebias absolutely necessary? |

| _________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 3:40pm - legionofthedying ""] why don't you go tweak a kick drum pedal or something? |
| _____________________________ [Mar 8,2011 3:42pm - ark ""] rule #1 about tubes: every tube is different. i say that as a drummer who's sold guitar amps to quite a few poor saps. |
