If you are referring to CV4035 tubes, your following information is incorrect.
"These equivalent tubes had incompatible pinouts. So he built adapters into the tube base so the pin out was functional"
CV4035 is a higher grade/reliability ECC83/12AX7 - only difference being these have flying leads instead of normal pins. Otherwise pin positions are the same. Flying leads tubes were designed to be soldered directly on the circuit board.

Our adapter makes this flying leads tube look and work like a normal tube with pins. Connections are straight through.
Same goes for other flying leads tubes like CV4033 (12AT7), CV4034 (12AU7), CV4109 (E188CC) and CV4001 (6X4WA, CV4005) and CV4086 (EF86).
