Also the color of the knobs is more important than most people realize.

I once knew an electric bass guitar player who insisted that the flecks in the paint on the solid wood body gave it a special tone. I should have tried to sell her this bridge I own.

And to stay on topic, yes the solid state replacements are definitely advisable, even if all you consider is the 15 W per 5U4 just for the filament. If you want it to be original, keep the tube handy to plug in when showing off the set. Then of course you can use the ST type for more dramatic effect.
