[QUOTE="JKMV12, post: 111788, member: 2019"] Well i got the amp back again a couple days ago. It has been playing great since i got it. I have some new Solvtek 6L6's in there. The MM OT is fine and after several more hours of playtime should sound even better. Apparently the arcing on the top of the board was caused by my brief moment of forgetfulness; i forgot the plug in the speakers for a few seconds. That terminal is now fixed. The tech also noticed some arcing underneath the board which was caused by the ground being way too close to the HT pin on the power tube socket. He did a simple fix but if it starts to act up again he will have to do some more work on it. It has been running fine so far so hopefully it stays that way. He also fixed up my 1087; sometimes it would play fine but other times it would have a massive loss of volume. It turned out to be the tube sockets; some of the contacts were pushed too far apart because of all the tube changing. Now everything is playing great and i can finally spend hours playing guitar again :D [/QUOTE]
