Okay...look, for all the hassle of changing parts, just sell the amp! There's no mystery why JCM 900's are not in big demand: they aren't really that good compared to other Marshalls. This isn't just my personal experience too (I've played through a 900..not thrilled); try selling one and see how hard it is to get a decent price! JCM 800's sell easily as do JCM 2000's. This is the market talking. So do the best you can and upgrade!

Stop trying to "fix" a JCM 900. Sell it to some kid who wants a tube Marshall and buy a JCM 800, JVM, DSL/TSL, etc. and you'll save money and have a better amp.
