Good selection of tubes at reasonable prices, very fast shipping. A great source for my amp building needs, Thanks!
best price around.
J&J is my first choice in vacuum tubes for guitar and audio amps. Antique Electronics offers excellent range of products and has great customer service
Top shelf! Nothing beats quality and performance. If you want the best, buy the best you can..
Bought two of these, one was DOA. When they last longer than 0 days, that’s really nice, as they do the job well.
They’re inexpensive and have never let me down, I use them in every build.
Reliable and great sounding!
I ordered 12 JJ 12AX7 tubes and they all were good. I test each tube in the first gain stage of a Blackface tube amp and all tubes woked great and no noise or microphonics. Very happy! Thank you!
Very quick, accurate shipping! Thank you!
