Hi, we only match power tubes. We do not match preamp tubes such as the 12AX7.

The pins are gold and this helps to prevent corrosion and buildup on the tubes pins. Other than the pins, they are the same tube as compared to the regular pin version.

When plugged in this tube has the following dimensions: 1.94" (49.2mm) x 0.87" (22mm). You will want to measure your existing tubes to insure a proper fit.

The S stand for spiral filament and refers to the internal construction. This will work in any situation where an ECC83/12AX7 is needed.

Tube characteristics can be different from brand to brand, and because the tone of tubes can be highly subjective, we can not verify if these tubes will get you your desired tone. You can visit the "Tech Corner" of our website for a 12AX7 comparison of current made tubes. This has a wealth of information to help you make a decision.

All information we were able to find on a Bedrock 600 stated that it uses EL84 power tubes.

Bought two of these, one was DOA. When they last longer than 0 days, that’s really nice, as they do the job well.
