FWIW I don’t know if you are dead set on keeping it original but there is a solid state replacement for the 1L6. I’ve used one myself and works great. It’s a direct plugin but ain’t cheap, like $44. There was a guy on eBay selling them when I bought mine or here’s a website selling them...http://www.solidstatetubes.com/index.html
