After reading about all of the problems with the LSS rectifier tubes going out I started getting paranoid about my (heavily gigged) Blue Angel.
It uses the 5AR4/GZ34, and I also have a 96' Fender Prosonic that uses that tube, and they are both stock.
Then I started to wonder when it uses the rectifier tube. The Blue Angel has 3 power tube choices, 2; 6V6's, 4;El84's, or all six. But it says dual rectifier so I wonder, at what point do the diodes kick in, and the tube kick out.
Thanks, and best to ya.
