Hi Guys,
Just a quick question on V1 preamp tube. Is this the tube closest to the input jack or the other side?
Got a nasty microphonic. Narrowed down to the head in a side by side 2 herbert head test. I'm assuming it is V1 preamp tube. I picked up 2 new tubes (chinese as recommended) but before I rip my new head open I want to know where exactly I am going.

Thanks in advance

You're right,V1 is the tube closest to the input jack. ;)
 
Problem solved no more squeal when quiet. Some might look at this as a bad thing, but had that tube not had that microphonic someone else would have probably bought it. Finding a new Herbert is not easy!!!!!!!
Thanks again for the help
