If the Soviets and Chinese hadn't spooled up production for
vacuum stste devices, we wouldn't likely be having this discussion
because the vintage stuff would be prohibitively expensive to
repair and maintain. High voltage caps would have ceased production
almost altogether and the old gear would be akin to restoring Victrolas (although those too are cool).I suppose we could thank guitar players and companies like ARC/CJ
as well for not letting the flame burn out and providing fiscal reasons for the new tube manufacturers to spool up new production.RFG
