Hi Jimmy,
I noticed in one your post that you have used the oval gray plate 6BQ5's by GE with good results.
I am in the process of building a Dyna ST35 clone and am in need of some good 6BQ5's.
Would you please direct me to a source of the GE tubes and give me the proper code from them as well?
A picture speaks a thousand words if one is available somewhere?
Thanks for your help.

188-5 is code, but not good enough as GE used that code on rectangle & oval plates. The rectangle plate is poor sounding. Just find the grey oval plate by looking at the plate.
- Thanks Jimmy, I will search for gray oval plates! (nt) - Vatron 16:13:47 09/27/04 (0)

I use these in the ST35 among other amps. Send me an email, I have an extra set of these GE 6BQ5.
