a collaborative eort between Analog Outtters and Nels Cline of Wilco.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
TUBE CARE
While tubes vary in their lifespan, ipping on the power switch and waiting 10 seconds before
turning on the standby switch every time you play will allow the tubes to warm up and
significantly increase the tube life.
CAUTION: Before touching or replacing the tubes, make sure your amp is UNPLUGGED AND
COOLED DOWN.
If tensioning or cleaning of the tube sockets is needed, refer to a qualied amp technician.
is amp is built to last a lifetime, but it never hurts to get it cleaned and serviced every 5 - 10
years to keep it singing! Reach out to us to have the builder who made your amp do a complete
physical. For day-to-day cleaning use a dry cloth to wipe your amp clean.
You can replace your amplier tubes with any brand, but we recommend using the following:
