N@Z 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2003 Had a quick look, I'm not familiar with these but the 12AT7 are pretty close to the ones used on the MG Head but not compatible I'm told. The Brands Siemens & Sylvanias are highly regarded & are normally used in the ZOTL. You might need to invest in some tube rings/dampers as well my Sylvanias (EL84 & 5751) tend to have a little microphonics which can be heard as a humming or background noise. Oak had similar problems on his Cayin when he used the Amperex & GE tubes I sold him which was solved by using the tube rings. Maybe he can source some for us too...

tee 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2003 Blues, you should pay visit to Rameish. I have seen his vast personal collection of new tubes, including NOS. So you may want to check his stock before tube-rolling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2003 Yes, that's the one. Ask him his source maybe we can get cheap thru' him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2003 If I'm not mistaken I bid for them on ebay, can't remember how much. I regret selling them actually, they are the Holland Bugle Boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
