I'd imagine so, it turns freely and was good when this whole fiasco started. I've also checked the micas on the S-G (albeit with a Chinese hand held tester), and all caps off the 6SN7 and 6BG6. Everything there is good, including the tubes.

I read the articles, and it seems that perhaps I could do the adjustment with a scope. I do have one handy now, just need some guidance on doing it
