You are bidding on a complete set of tested tubes for All American Five (AA5) radios, consisting of the following miniature tube variants: 35W4, 50C5, 12AV6, 12BA6, and 12BE6.  If you want to substitute a tube just let us know at the time of payment (such as a 12AT6 versus a 12AV6 etc).  The photo is representative of the tubes you will receive, more than likely the tubes you receive will not be the same brand, we sell too many of these sets to continually update with an actual photo.  Note that we ship each tube in an individual tube box, and then in an outer shipping carton; we DO NOT SHIP in padded envelopes to save on shipping costs like some sellers do.  You can be assured your set will arrive in good working condition.


All our tubes are tested and guaranteed by us; we only test tubes on one of our quality calibrated mutual conductance testers, NEVER on an emissions tester.  The testers we use are Phil Frakes's Bitmatic computerized Cardmatic testers from Tubesontheweb, the specific models are Western Electric KS-15874-L2's which were made for Western Electric by Hickok; we currently own two of these testers.  Our backup testers which we use occasionally are military TV-10D/U's.  For specialized tests, we employ one of our VTV Dual Triode Characterizers (for preamp tubes) as well as a Maxi-Matcher (for power tube matching).  Tubes are guaranteed for 90 days, refund or replacement our choice. Thanks for looking at our auction and be sure to check out our other auctions for other tubes that may be of interest. (lot VX)
