ALL TUBES HAVE BEEN SOLD!!!
I am selling my ModWright LS100 tubed preamp (see separately listed ad), and therefore have the following vintage tubes to sell. All tubes were checked out just recently  in my ModWright and were working properly and sounded great. Of course, due to the nature of tubes, they are being sold as is.

!. A matched pair of RCA 6SN7GTBs from the mid-late 1960s, which I bought NOS from Andy Bouwman at Vintage Tube Services in 2018 and used for about 1 year. The RCAs were marked by Andy as “Perfect Micro. Mirror-Matched Pair, Ultra Low Mic. M.C. Phono Input Sel.” The RCAs have been my favorite 6SN7s – full sounding, dynamic, and nice touch of warmth without loss of detail. Asking $50 for the pair, plus shipping and PayPal fee.

2. A 1958 Amperex Bugleboy 5AR4 rectifier tube, which I bought NOS from Brent Jessee and used for about 3 years. These are reputed to be some of the best 5AR4s made. Asking $50, plus shipping and PayPal fee.

3. A 1950s Siemens-labeled metal base GZ34, which I bought from a fellow ACer, who said it had about 400 hours on it. I’ve used it for less than 2 years. This is my favorite rectifier tube and may just be the Holy Grail of the 5AR4/GZ34 tubes (and sometimes called the “last forever” tube). I understand that it was made either by Amperex or Mullard. This appears to be the same tube that Dubstep Girl raved about in "Dubstep Girl's Massive 5AR4/5R4/5U4G Rectifier Review Comparison" on Head-Fi: "This ranks amongst the best tubes I own....Also to note, this tube is supposed to have a huge lifespan...." Asking $175, plus shipping and PayPal fee.

If you buy all 4 tubes, my price is $250, plus shipping (CONUS only) and PayPal fee.
If you buy my ModWright LS100 plus all 4 tubes, I will offer a special discount.
