Fat Boy's

Post by JimiJames » Thu Aug 30, 2012 8:00 pm

Original USA Fat Boy's Sylvania, RCA or GE 6CA7's
$199.00 per pair or $398.00 per quad.

Guy on Craigslist selling them. From the listing sounds like he's not an amp guy, but a HiFi guy... ehh. is he High Fi or is that goin' rate ? :shock:

Easily the going rate. FWIW, I paid $130 for a mint triple getter pair of Syl's, but that was a VERY lucky price, and from a good seller too.
So I like purple, okay!!!!!!

Does he have both types? Sylvania and GE?

He said he did !

Phone, e-mail, and inventory.

Sounds like an informative & reasonable guy, Rog. I didn't ask, but I wonder what shape they're in. I wonder what life they have and if they're are close to N.O.S. (in which he elaborates) ? :scratch: He does use a Tektronix curve tracer to match up and verify strength under a real load. More accurate than a tube tester...
So, yeah, I guess he's asking a fair price if that's the case.
Be sure to check out his informative vid's. 8)
