At some point I must have adjusted the bias with PS at just under 50%. I cranked the comp and PS all the way up when a bass player was using the amp and could not heard. Got pretty stinkin' hot. I believe that is what happened. Bias check later proved way too high for the 6V6s involved. I had used the amp for quite some time without changing the PS and comp before this.
