This is misleading. Fixed bias means it does have an adjustable bias pot (so you can 'fix' the bias). If it does not have a bias pot it is cathode biased.Originally posted by BackwardsBoB View PostIt's weird, because it WAS working fine.....Comment

Also not entirely right... lots of amps don't come with a pot yet are fixed bias. Peaveys & Mesas come to mind, and Princeton Reverbs... Also, all those SF Fenders with the bias balance. Fixed bias means a constant negative voltage is applied directly to the grid and the cathode is grounded. A better term for amps with a bias adjustment pot would be "adjustable fixed bias."

Well done.
Caution on a post above saying you can safely put 6L6 in a 6V6 Amp (opposite of what you have done). In a some cases this 6L6 in place of 6V6 will cause grief due to MUCH higher heater current requirements.
