Amplifier Owner Maintenance:

Damage to the amplifier caused by out-of-warranty tubes, wile rare, may not be covered under this warranty. This Warranty becomes void if any tubes other than genuine Mesa tubes are used. Abuse, misuse, or failure to properly maintain your amplifier or cabinet may, at Gibson Brands sole discretion, invalidate this Warranty
