I’m embarrassed to say that I’m not sure if this is a tube rattle or not, but my brand new Zwreck Jr has a ringing type noise, especially on certain notes. Is there a way to check/remedy this without buying new tubes?
Thank you very much for your help!

I buy my dampers from that ebay seller.

I've used that ebay seller for dampers as well. They were very helpful in getting me the correct size for the old Winged C 6550s in my JCM 800.

One thing you can try is to grab hold of each tube one at a time -- using, say, oven mitts or a towel -- as you play to see if the sound is indeed related to a tube. Obviously hard to play and do the grab. I usually put my guitar on a stand and then hit an open string or two and do the grab.

Another idea other than hitting an open string would possibly be to use a looper if you have one. That way you could play the notes that your having issues with and it would continue playing the same thing. Just another idea.

Is there a way to check/remedy this without buying new tubes? Thank you very much for your help! My new Wreck Jr. came with damper rings factory installed on the power tubes - yours? I remember there had been a noise on certain notes initially - gone after I carefully reseated all tubes. Well, the amp had a long shipping trip behind, all the way to Switzerland ...
