Re: Telefunken 12AX7/ECC83-- possible counterfeit?

8eyed,

I have smooth plates which have extensions of each anode edge passing through the top mica spacer. They are straight.

I also have a couple of stamped plates with the same extension through the mica & are bend over. The one which attaches to the getter ring is not bent.

Is this what you are talking about? BTW---all "diamonds" are the same size.

The ones labeled ECC83 say "Made in Germany" only. The ones labeled 12AX7/ECC83 say "Made in Western Germany."
