I've heard of inflation but this is insane.

700 bucks for a 12AX7?

Did God himself craft it?
My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    I didn't even know you could get different types of those things.

    Pac- Think tube mic preamps and compressors, hi-fi tube studio monitor amps, etc. Or a preamp tube for Keith Richards' studio-only Champ amp. Those things are worth it to the right buyer. Cheap Sovtek tubes are great for my guitar amp, but I'd love some Telefunkens in a Universal Audio 610.
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.

    yeah that's true.

    By the way I pulled the tubes from that 1959 hammond model M I dismantled.

    RCA blackplate 5U4 and 2 Sylvania 6V6's among the take very lightly used, not bad huh.
