If your amp is adjustable bias all you need to bias the amp is a bias probe and a multimeter or the Eurotubes "Pro One". All of these are available in the "Related Products" tab. 

You can use the Deluxe Reverb bias video for reference. We typically bias these amps between 36 to 44mA with the JJ 6L6GC's, or 33 to 40mA for 5881's and between 23 to 28mA with the JJ 6V6S's. The bias pot is located inside the chassis.
