slightly neurotic question from a tube newbie

In the process of bending your pins, you put stress on the socket which, in turn, loosened its grip on the tube. If the tube glows and the amp sounds normal, I wouldn't worry about it. If you're anal retentive and want to restore its original grip, you can use a pointed object like an awl to bend the socket contacts toward each other. Don't go overboard. They only need a slight tweak. Of course, before you do anything, unplug the amp and let it sit for a while before you start poking around.

Tube amps have lots of current flowing.
My advise is to NOT turn it on. Take it to a tech and have it checked out. Most likely, he/she will do exactly what Mingles (above) advised. But, loose sockets and poking around can be dangerous.

I would humbly say "no", it would not pose a problem. If on the other hand, you replace tubes all the time, then you may run into a problem with the socket becoming too loose.

Just don't mess with the tube anymore and you will not have anymore problems..If you get more nuerotic and try to bend it again it may then fail..Leave it be and enjoy......

If there is one thing that I have learned in my life...DO NOT TRY TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IS NOT BROKEN. LOL.
