Product Reviews
Great match for the stock Vox AC15CC1 retainers. I recently got a new-to-me AC15CC1 with one missing.
Purchased a pair of vintage soviet tube amps from Ukraine, during transit the tubes came out of their sockets and broke. After finding replacements I decided to mount these retainers on the chassis to keep that from happening again. They can be easily bent to fit shorter tubes.
Overall, this retainer works well with the "top mount" Belton sockets (AES part number P-ST9-600). As-is, the retaining wire is a little on the snug side. But there is a second set of holes on the bracket that let you loosen the tension a bit.
The tube retainer works very well. Also you can see the tubes light up.
