I am new to this forum and seeking advice/recommendations.
Sometime in the mid-'80's, I purchased a 1978 Princeton Reverb from a Mall music store in Dallas. It looked like it had been a floor model and was very reasonably priced. Years later, I went to another music store in Austin, purchased new tubes and installed them. Since then, it has spent most of the time in the closet. I recently took it out to see if it needed work. I'm not much of a tech but thought that checking the tube types with the list pasted in the amp chassis was a good idea. From what I see, several of the tubes the store sold me were not the type listed in the amp. Although I still have the original tubes, I'm thinking it best to purchase a new set that is correct. However, I don't know the best place or brand of tubes to purchase. I'm in my late '60's, recently retired, and guitar magazines these days advertise so many options. What should I buy?
Thanks in advance for any advice or recommendations.
