Thanks, I think I'll just leave it alone.There's an old saying: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I pulled on the cord instead of lifting it by the cap, which I usually do but in my haste.... yup..haste makes waste. I know little to zero about soldering, and did the YouTube video before attempting the reconstructive surgery. The one video I saw did recommend the lead free rosin core. So wondering now that I've saved my beloved VT99 if I should try the Fitz Mod or just let things be...
Ok many thanms@Taffy the tramp just don't forget you need a 7N7 to 6SN7 adapter!
Between $30 to $50, and if you look enough people who don't know what they have... $3 Tall Bottles are the one's you want, and her'es a ok many thanks

Your pull of the adapter cord connecting the cap hurts my soul, lol. As for the Fitz Mod, unless there's some tubes with that continue to have humming issues after proper burn-in, I would say no. The gain introduced by the mod is not something I'm happy with to be honest. I'm thinking of reversing the mod or seeing if a new volume pot would improve things. The stock 250K pot is a bit too much for this amp. Lately, I've just been too lazy and have been listening to my planars a lot.Thanks, I think I'll just leave it alone.

Not yet, will Youtube it now
Just popped in an NOS Sylvania 6as7a black plate from ebay I got for $6 plus $4.53 shipping. Wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly suprised. Makes a new production Tung-Sol 6sn7gtb sound vintage. Will keep this combo in for a while.
Unfortunately it's not a coke bottle, just a plain glass tube, but it does have a nice glow:
