Tung Sol 12ax7 is the ideal choice for all kind of vintage guitar and bass american classic amplifiers. Most obviously Fender, but also Ampeg, Sunn, Gibson and other US made amps from the 50/60s enjoy this tube in their preamp stage. Not the exact tone for Marshall, Hiwatt, Vox, Orange and other British amps, were the first option is Mullard Neither a great choice for HiFi preamps such as Fisher or Mcintosh were the Genalex Gold Lion (Gold Pin russian made) is the most suitable.

I paid 159 for a set of tubes that could've been purchased (same brand, tube set, etc.) for less than $100. I wish I had done a more thorough investigation before hitting "buy now" as I could've acquired the same product, for 60 dollars less... Everything (product wise) is fine, but I way overpaid!

I put the vintage Tung Sol 12ax7 long gray plate in v1 of my Peavey Delta Blues 210 and it sounded great. I use a Raytheon long shiny black plate in that amp now which I think sounds better, but is much more expensive. Either one of these is head and shoulders better than the new production tubes available today.

A breeze to replace/install. Perfectly matched upgrade at a super affordable price. I sound like a guitar viruoso now! Thanks TUNG-SOL, A Russian company with NO ties to OUR FINE NEW PRESIDENT TRUMP 45!!!

Tung-Sol 12ax7 preamp tubes in the V1 position rock. Their EL34 power tubes also sound great. Othe Tung-Sol tubes probably kick butt too. The only other preamp tube I like is the Millard CV4004 in the V1 position.
