Glowing tubes

[trypple amp]

Hi deizel people's,I have a problem.This last year I bought a vh4 from Make'n music. I liked it so much I bought another vh4 and a vh4s I received in Nov.The vh4 I received in Nov. has maybe 2hours on it.The other day I was playing it and the volume dropped in half then in half again.I look in the amp and the first 2tubes are glowing red.Before I drop some new tubes in it,I want to make sure that is the actual issue.Please help...

Yes that is the issue, get them swapped ASAP

Yup sounds like the tubes are red plating - get the bias checked and replace!

I had a similar issue a couple months ago with my VH4, but it was only 1 tube. I replaced the power tubes and re-biased and all is good.
