Thats one of the reasons I hit the "Buy it Now" button. I guess I'll find out when they get here. That would be sweet.

I tried blowing it up in Photoshop but real life isn't like CSI and I couldn't tell.
Never settle for an amp thats smaller then you are.

I paid £3 for a Mullard ECC83, rebranded as tungsram. I took a gamble with a buy it now auction with terrible pictures and it paid off!

I did the same thing with a couple RCA's...and, yup, they were Mullards for about $10 each. Sweet. :lol:

On the other end of the scale I just got "reminded" about this:

I totally forgot about that one.
My wife is going to KILL me so if I don't post for a day or two you'll know why. :roll:

I got three shortplates off ebay acouple of weeks ago, two 163 and one 161 mullard shield branded in mint cond and just got them back after my amp guy tested them. I paid £35 for all three and they test almost new. I think thats a fair price.
