DC-5 JJ tubes?

[baddmann28]

I'm still deciding on a couple of amps, one of which is the DC-5. I'm seeing several for sale, some with Mesa Tubes, some with JJ's. Does using the JJ's mess with the bias. so if you went back and fort between the two - does it have to be biased?

As long as you let the store you're buying from know it's for a Mesa there won't be any problems with the bias. They'll send the right ones for your amp. You might ask the seller of the amp with JJ's where he got the tubes and if they're selected for a Mesa amp.
