short in a tube-what happens?


I just received a 6dj8 tube which i tested on my tube tester. the reading were fine, however there was a clear short in the tube.

what happens if a tube with a short is installed in your audio gear?

disaster? hum? anyone ever brave enough to find out?

by short, I mean, my tube testers light lights up when it senses a short in the tube being tested.

the tube in question is a nicer SQ tube, so id rather not throw it away if it has some value.
