If it's a valve it will be the return one, V4 - next to the reverb transformer on the side closest to the power valves. Swap it with V1 - if the problem doesn't go away it's not the valve.

I can hear that, but don't dislike it, although I have to say that wouldn't be the distortion sound I'd shoot for. Possibly with differing set-ups, other factors come into play. I like the warmth they bring, and think of some other valves as being thin rather than clear.
I have been using them virtually exclusively for the last7-8 years in my own amps and all the repairs I do, and haven't found an amp that I don't like them in. I think all the clips on my YouTube channel were recorded with them.
