There are so many things that influence what you might hear in your place with your stuff that I don't think one can make a blanket judgement. All that can be said is what you liked in that setting.The Tele 12ax7 has the reputation. It is the benchmark. So while there may be lots of other NOS and current production 12ax7s, Tele is still the king by virture of its long term standing. Now none of this should be taken to mean the current asking price for NOS Tele 12ax7s is sonically worth it:)
