I just blew a tube in my DIY Tweed, probably playing at max volume for too long. I don't have 470 ohm screen resistors on the tubes so maybe that's why. I'm going to add resistors in there but I only have 680 ohm. Apparently 470 ohm to 1k can be used and it won't make any difference I but just wanted to ask to be sure before I put the 680 ohm in. Thanks for any advice.

Sure, much better with 680 ohm then zero.I just blew a tube in my DIY Tweed, probably playing at max volume for too long. I don't have 470 ohm screen resistors on the tubes so maybe that's why.
