I know that if you're playing fairly regularly, you should change them at
least once a year. You should take them to a skilled pro because there
are things like biasing and such that you need to have the proper
equipment to do properly. It's not really that expensive (relative to
the price of a good tube amp at least). I got the power amp section of
my old Orange OR-120 re-tubed for a little over $100.As far as how to tell you need new tubes, let's just say that you don't
really notice that your tubes have gone bad (baring any obvious problems)
until you put the new ones in. It was like night and day to me.coy
