I would ask for help, I read somewhere that using the amp at low or high can bring problems in one of two positions because it forces the amp more, is this really true? I have a 210/65 music man with 12ax7 and I always use low, should I use high to avoid future problems?

Use whatever makes you happy
The amp breaks up easier in low mode that's all. I have read and been told many times over the years that one shouldn't run a MM amp on hi as it was somehow unnatural. This is of course silly. The MM amps were designed with plenty headroom to run fine in both modes for years without any issues. The only issue I could see is trying to use tubes that are not suited for the 700+ volts in the hi setting but thankfully there are, if not many, several different types of EL34/6CA7 and 6L6GC tubes being made today that will handle Music Man amps as originally intended.
Clear as mud?

Thanks for the attention, my
Thanks for the attention, my friend, I will continue to use it in the low so I use the appropriate valves for the MM, mine is a European version.
