In Reply to: RE: That looks like an RCA black plate to me. posted by Michael Samra on July 07, 2016 at 05:31:18
...I've never seen an RCA (actually, any US 12AX7) with spot welded plates. Have you?

I haven't but,that tube is a B339 and while there is a remote possibility that Mullard did build the tube,there is also the possibility that the tube was manufactured for a specific industrial or military application and that's why the tube has the spot welds. It is sort of like in the day when General Motors built the Turbo 400 transmission for Rolls Royce and Bentley.Even tho it was the same identical transmission GM used in their larger cars,it had some slight changes in the bell housing and oil lines to adapt the Rolls and Bentley.

This ecc83 long welded black plate is truely made by Mullard in 1953, this is the best sound ecc83 ever made!
