Best way is to look at the FM envelope . will be in the head amp circuit and
can usaully be found without a scimatic. look at each head closely for jagged
or chipped edges and last resort drag your finger nail turning away from your
nail. You can get a feel for a chipped head this way but also can break them
be carefull
