I took them out and put the three old ones that were working and one of the new ones in place of the glowing red one and it worked fine. Chunked the blown one and kept the rest of the old ones as spares.

Had a pretty rad show on Halloween. Played to about a hundred and 25 people and everytime I looked out I noticed all eyes were on us. Sold a shitload of merch (well not a lot, but a shitload for us) AND got great pay from the door. First show with the new bassist. He had only one practice with us before we took off for two weeks since our drummer had a baby girl. Dude nailed pretty much everything. Hope to hit the studio asap to record this full length.

Yesterday one of my old bandmates got married. He did vocals for my old trailer thrash punk band and during the reception one of the bands we made friends with with that band came down and played a pretty long set. I don't think I have ever witnessed a more badasser wedding band in the history of bands or weddings.

The guitarist was running a Tele into a TU3, some red fuzz, a Boss EQ with scooped mids into a Hiwatt 50 watter and a 6505 cab. The bassist has some pedals and a sonic maximizer running into a Mesa 400 power amp and a Mesa 15 and 2x10 cab. Shit sounded really good. My son was right up front watching the drummer. He couldn't get enough of them.

I'm a noob when it comes to troubleshooting amps, strictly because I've always flipped them and bought something else before something went wrong. I bought a V4 on ebay about a month or so ago, the guy claimed it was in working condition. I finally got back to my cab at our practice space this weekend, so I was nervous to make sure it even worked at all. Upon turning it on, all I got was a ton of ground noise/static, two tubes that seemed to be running correctly, one that was a bit dim, and one that was bright beyond belief. Insane amounts of heat, too. I turned it off, back on (standby this time) and switched cables to make sure it wasn't something on my end that was going wrong... that rendered in the same tube situation along with NO noise whatsoever. How do I go about fixing this, and what could be the problem?

I love the vintage Celestion 65's I have in my 2x12 at home, been thinking about swapping out the speakers in my Marshall 1960B cab for something similar, but I want plenty of volume and headroom. I don't much care for the sound of pushed speakers with guitar, I like to get all my dirt with pedals and let the amp and cab stay pretty clean and balanced sounding.

Have you compare the ET65's with the original Celestion 65's? Those have seriously become my favorite speakers for guitar over the years. I wish I had more cash to be able to buy up some speakers to compare. I need to pick up some more recording and/or mixing jobs.
