Is that the bass version of the midget in yours? I'm wondering if mine doesn't need to be retubed and serviced.

Yes! I have two and them both.
They sound different.. one is gnarly and one is tame.
Chances are the caps are fine.. these aren't that old.
Tubes are like tires. How hard have you run them and for how long?
Using an amp a couple of times a week, every week for year could require a service.
If you get a retube, do the power tubes and have it biased before the preamp and rectifier..
Chances are those will be fine.
