Paul, why didn’t you just call me on this one??

YES, the Sylvania 7581As that a few people are now selling are simply
EXCELLENT!!! These are the tight spec versions of the old STR 6L6GC
asskicker. These are the tubes that made the original Boogies boogie.
Next to the old RCA Blackplates, these are the best ever. (Not counting
the totally excellent British KT66 and EL37).

Go for it!! I bought 7 matched quartets of these 7581As from New Sensor
when they had them.

Regards

John.

 

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
