New to this forum, having problems with my Deville.

[JaycetheOwl]

I own a 1998 Hot Rod Deville.
I was recently given a pair of Sovtek 6l6 tubes and was going to swap them into my amp.
This amp has never had new tubes before.
Anywho, I go to put them in and the right tube sparks really bad as soon as I power up my amp.
When I tried biasing the amp from the bias point, it isn't registering anything on my multimeter.
When I try playing the guitar through it, the sound is static-y and really quiet.
I then tried putting my old tubes back in and it sounds the same, static-y, quiet and broken.

What have I don't to my amp, what can I do?

The bad tube took out the screen resistor and then it gets deeper from there.

Needs repair.

What do you mean "it gets deeper from there"? I'd really like to try and fix this myself to learn from my mistakes.

The only mistake was a bad tube. These amps are misery to work on. Have you ever worked on any amps? If you use this string in Google:

Read and then let's go over what we find in your amp. Don't stick your hands in there without draining the caps but we need close pictures of that area around the output tubes on their board to see if this one burned traces off like many of them do.

6 of these in a row made me stop taking outside work. A fact.

My favorite mod to this amp is to gut the chassis and stick something else in there with a handwired board

just kidding. While your in there touch up the solder on those ribbon cables. Chopstick the crap out of them afterwards and see if it makes any popping noises.
