Photos shown in this listing are of the actual item for sale.

NO STOCK PHOTOS USED unless otherwise stated.

All our items, including changeable parts like bulbs, etc are security marked. If an item is returned these marks that have been hidden throughout the unit  are checked before any refunds are given. ( sorry about this , but there are those out there that think it is clever to change parts and return faulty ones.

I do not Sell Just Passable Vacuum Tubes. All tubes purchased have loads of life left in them. Low and weak tubes are unceremoniously thrown in the nearest trash can, unless they are collectors Items.

When using the word “Matched” it means in test results rather than in cosmetic looks. Whilst I endeavor to put tubes together from the same year and look the same, this is not always the case. I may have the same tube but from differing years matched up in test results, which means they may cosmetically or internally look a little different...

The numbers/letters in parentheses are Equivalents put in to help people to find the correct tube.

If it does not say MATCHED then please do not consider them to be such.

 I do not publish test results in the listing as what I get, and what someone else might get can be different.  I use a TV7/U military spec Tester which is calibrated. I have 4 of these machines and all display a slightly differing value if I test the same tube,  as two testers are never the same.  So this shows what I get, and what you get may be slightly different.

I also sometimes use a Hickok 752 for testing

If I state any values they are for a guide only.

All tubes have passed the Gas and short tests.

Rectifiers and Diode tubes do not have Transconductance values.

Please have a look at the pictures for the cosmetic condition. Please realize when buying antique, vintage or used equipment that they cannot be in an absolute mint or absolute perfect condition, they might need some service, now or later. I take lots of pictures so you can see cosmetics. Use the zoom function and have a good look. It is impossible to describe every scratch, scuff or mark. So take a good look. That is what they are there for. We check and describe the as much of the functionality as we can.  If not Fully tested , then items are not tested to the full extent and may have something wrong that I have not discovered. If Fully tested then that is what they are. Fully working.
