Don't sell your tube amps

Long live tubes !!!!    Well , the amps they are in anyway.    Tubes themselves have a finite life , but that's OK so do I .    

I don't really care about tube life as long as it's longer than mine.  The tube equipment I use operates tubes very conservatively to extend tube life as much as possible.  My doctor does the same thing with me.

I own three tube amps and wouldn't consider selling them. I also own solid state amps, but find myself playing my tube amps more often. What I enjoy, other  than the sound, is ability to roll the tubes to achieve a more refined or different sound which you can't do with solid state amps. Just my two cents. 

 Tubes will be around longer than many think. Same of the internal combustion engine and the gas range. This will all change once people start looking at the grid and electrical infrastructure. Will it all end one day? Yes, but not in our lifetimes or our children's or our grandchildren's.  

Yes, tubes will be around for a long time… but the internal combustion engine not so much. They are destroying our planet. The electrical infrastructure will be improved, the ICE will be banned… in the next thirty years… or our planet will become uninhabitable. 
 

We have been ignoring climate change for thirty years… the consequences are here.
