I've used Ian Davies in Glastonbury to repair my Orange Terror. Proper old school electronics engineer who fixes things rather than just swapping boards. He replaced some transistors on the power section of my amp and got it working like new for a bargain price. https://hifirepairspecialist.com/

I have not. I didn't know that thread existed. I shall do that now

I've been asked to audition for a band playing originals. They've not got anything recorded yet other than a couple YouTube videos. Is there anyway I can get an mp3 from YouTube to drop in my DAW?

I've had a couple amps repaired. Both cost me under £100 and one included a new power amp fitted. I think my local tech just asks for £20 for diagnosis. Definitely at least worth getting checked, could be as simple as an internal fuse.

Does that mean they're less suited to low tunings?

I liked the last album. I'll agree letting Sergio go was a mistake, his playing was perfect for the bands overall sound. Steph knows more about this than we do, he's been around the globe dozens of times, he knows it's flatter than his guitar tuning. Seriously though, the man smokes far too much weed and it's scrambled his brain. I met him a few years ago and hung out with him and Sergio for half an hour and Steph is fried in the head, I've no idea how he can still play.

Word on the street is Deftones new bassist is Fred Sablan. It makes sense, he's a man who doesn't really commit to one band and that might work with a band who don't want to commit to a bassist. He is a very good and very experienced metal bassist https://www.punk-rocker.com/alternative/deftones-hiring-big-marilyn-manson-name/
