generally, preamp tubes are all self biased

output tubes in a Class A/B (like I believe this amp is) need to be biased to match the tubes.

Class A amps don't necessarily need biasing, but you need to still confirm that the output tubes all actually match each other. (Something a lot of techs just overlook and trust the specs on the tube boxes)

Mesa Dual Rectifier's Output section is known to be self-biased simply because the amp runs too cold to matter.

Other than those scenarios, I don't really know of other self-biasing amps.

Without really knowing much about the Pitbull, I can almost guarantee that it's not self-biased.
