Re: Preamp Tubes? - Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How?

You know I was a run of the mill mild mannored Joe till I found this thread. Now I am looking for old tubes like a junkie looking to score. I have been asking everyone I know if they have any old tubes. It turns out a guy I work with used to repair TV's and old electronics. I told him what I was looking for and he knew right away what it was. He said he is going to look around and see if he has anything. If he does it is mine.

If I come across anything interesting I will post it.

Let's say this guy comes up with something. Any words of wisdom before I go popping a 40 year old tube in my Marshall?

I mean it sounds like crap right now but at least it works.
