Vacuum Tubes
The first electronic amplification of sound was done with Vacuum Tubes. We have pre-amp, power and rectifier vacuum tubes among other types in New Old Stock from the golden era of American & European manufacturing as well as current production tubes from today.
The JJ Electronic 6SL7 is a great reproduction of the classic octal based dual triode. This tube has the quality construction and reliability that one would expect from a JJ tube. The JJ 6SL7 is a great replacement tube for any 6SL7 position such as early Fender, Gibson, and Ampeg amps as well as Hi-Fi equipment.

A dual triode that can be used in place of most 12AX7 circuits. The rugged build of this tube and reduced gain (30% less than a 12AX7) can improve headroom and give better control in high gain stages allowing users to more easily dial in sweet spots. The JJ 5751 features a smooth and balanced tone and a detailed response with low noise and low microphonics.
$19.95
Dissimilar double triode in the 9-pin miniature construction. It is especially suitable for applications requiring a high gain voltage amplifier and a cathodyne type phase-inverter.

$249.90
A new take on the classic 12AX7 preamp tube. While it uses the same rugged build and thick glass as other JJ preamp tubes, this tube differs in construction from the typical 12AX7 in that it features a medium-long plate, which provides a dynamic and open sound with a rich forward sounding mid range. This tube offers low noise and low microphonics.
$20.60
High-mu twin triode designed for use in resistance-coupled circuits as a voltage amplifier or phase inverter. Except for heater characteristics and ratings, the 12SL7GT is identical to the 6SL7GT.
$6.90
Electro-Harmonix has released a low noise, low microphonic version of the 12AX7 that meets all specifications required for the tube to be designated 7025.
