Keep the amp safe from hard knocks and shocks. Tubes are fragile and tend to suffer
whenexposedtomechanicalstress!
Let the amp cool down before you transport it. Ten 10 minutes or so will do to spare
thetubes.
Tubes take some 20 seconds to warm up after you switch the power on, and about
two to three minutes before they are able to pump out full power. Make a habit of
giving your amp plenty of time to get toasty and of flipping the Standby switch for
shortbreaks.
