Changing Tube in Blackstar Dist-X

[MaCcA]

Anybody can give me advice on how to do this?

I took off the back plate...flipped over the first circuit board....but the 2nd circuit board (where i believe the tube lies) can't be taken out =(

you bought tubes? Where did you get them from?

Hmm...you should try googling...for me i only need to pull the tube out...quite hard to pull out though...

Sorry if i ain't helping...i'm new to tube amps

Interesting. What tube are you swapping it with ?

Wiggle the tube to get it out, don't yank it out, might damage something.

Also, you can get JJ tubes from Woodworkz in Excelsior.

Hoping to swap in a jj tube...but not sure how...someone put it on google like the 2nd circuit board comes off naturally but it doesn't look that way for me hah

I can't even get the circuit board that the tube is attached to out though...

you need to unscrew the foot switch. Then unscrew the jacks.

Then gently press on the foot switch to push the circuit board out.
