Nah, tubes marketed towards guitar players/amps are Not tested or selected for higher distortion. If anything they're sometimes matched for plate current because many of them find their way into a class AB2 rig, with crazy HT and fixed bias. Otherwise it's just a label.
So yes they're fine for hifi, assuming a 6L6, 6550 or EL34 is.
Same goes for the 12AX7's, some are tested for Low microphonics,
but so what? You can do better in this area for hifi, cheap.
