Replaced the tube, tested. Just a line. Shut it down and tested the new tube and it is still good with no shorts.

I think I may have figured it out, the cap at C14, I think I have the wrong one. The value is correct but it looks like the square AC cap, not like the rest of the poly caps that I ordered.

I cut out C14 and put the original back. The V.lin pot was done, I replaced it with a sub (Not the right value but I wanted to see if it mad any difference. That restored the set to the way it was before. I noticed that the 6DR7 was red plating, so I shut it down. (I think that happened because the original C14 is bad) I ordered a replacement cap, and I will order a new pot for the one that failed.

On a good note, since I needed to order $20 worth of stuff to meet the minimum order... I ordered the parts to fix 2 more tube amps that have been on the bench for months.
