Re-tubing a 1970 amplifier and realized that I needed ONE MORE 12AX7 valve. Found "AmplifiedParts" and got it shipped straight away. Fair price, too. I would recommend them to a friend. d

I put JJ 12AX7’s in my Fender Tweed Deluxe Hot Rod amp and it really smoothed out the sound. JJ tubes always make my amps sound better.
I ordered my tubes on a Tuesday evening and installed them Friday morning. Supersonic shipping.

awsome tube and store try them you won't regret it.
I replaced tubes in an old dead Crate Vintage Club 30watt with the JJ 12Ax7's and JJ EL84's...WOW!!! It's never sounded this good. Im even going to say something I can't believe, I played thru a Kendrick New Joyzee I had Gerald Weber built until it got stolen, but this little 30 watt is driving warm all the way to SMOKEN!!! And this will be my amp until I get brave enough to build one myself. I also put a MOD reverb tank in it and its very smooth and sparkly.
Thanks for the great selection of part and supplies and the quick service. OUT of the PARK!!!
These came as Oem in my Blues Deluxe. Loved the sound so I put them in a Hot Rod Deluxe. Talk about warming up the sound. They break up nicely when pushed as well.
JJs are the most highly recommended tubes currently being manufactured. I have had nothing but good results using them. I hope they don't drop their standards.
