I got an email from Antique Electronic Supply last week and I checked the supply on this tube, which was out of stock when I looked a year or two ago. I had built the Broskie Aikido with these back in 2006 (which I found out when I did a search just now). I still use this pre-amp as my one and only.

Anyway they were all GE marked Made in Holland. Does that mean they are all Amperex? My original quad is Amperex Bugle Boys/Orange Globes, 2 of each.

The last time I inquired about these from a private seller, he wanted I think $160 for the quad and I thought that was crazy. These are NOT a popular tube, even with 24v Aikidos going semi-commercial. I just paid 6.60 each, so about $25. I paid even less for my original quad.
