Does the Antidote has an internal Trim pot like fender amps to adjust the Bias of the amp? Soon I will need to make my first retubing and need to know this to make sure everything works properly.
Please let me know
Thanks

Yeah--there will be a trim-pot inside the amp; you'll need to remove the chassis to do this, not go through a hole from the outside like some Fender amps. Be very careful about this, though, and only proceed if you have experience working with guitar amp circuits. Deadly voltages may exist inside there. That being said... Dr. Z's website shows that you should expect to bias at or around 33 mA plate current for his recommended Gold Lion KT-66 tubes.

Is there enough range in the bias trim pot to use EL34's and 6L6's?

I have a Therapy and love it. I traded a Z28 I had for sale with a guy that had a "dote for sale and when I first got it I was like..this is loud (and it is) wasn't sure about the tone etc,long story short..I play the Dote more than the therapy.Still love the Therapy and miss the Z28 but Dote is on its own category and that Tone bypass is thick like molasses
