WG and Amplifone share the same tubes....it's the deflection coil that
differs but should run ok. It's the neck pin plastic spacer that's
different, this can be changed...use nail varnish remover to soften the
mastic holding it in place then gently pry it off. Pinout is the same.

Just to clarifly the post...

You can swap one complete monitor as a single unit (which includes the
tube and boards) with another complete monitor. If your Star Wars has
a Ampliphone monitor you can remove the entire monitor and monitor
boards and swap in a WG monitor that is complete with it's own boards.
You can not just plug Ampliphone boards into a WG monitor tube or just
throw in a WG tube and expect to plug in the existing Ampliphone
boards. Those monitors have specific boards to drive there own tubes.
