[HAM] CV- Vibrato Distortion.

[David Damroze]

I'll check that as well as the suggestions from Pete.
  I'm leaning towards the V3 6SN7 because the distortion gets markedly 
worse with
the chorus on.  I'll have to pull the pre-amp , because someone added 
one of those tube socket
extenders  on V5   to hookup power to the Edward Control reverb unit 
and that tube is butted right
up against the vibrato box.
Hopefully , swapping those tubes will tell me something.
