Just recently bought the Varmint amp from a gent that I made friends with on the CB radio. It has been modified by a local amp builder. It has one 6KV6 driving two 6N45C Russian tubes. The Russian tubes can be bought for reasonable prices, so I think that's why the amp was modded.
I looked at a tube database, and the preferred substitute for a 6KV6 is a 6JG6. What should I expect if I did use 6JG6 as a substitute for a 6KV6? Is it just plug and play or what?
If the need arises to change tubes, what's the best way to go about it, so I don't end up six feet under? Of course I will unplug the AC power cord!
