Hey, I derived my screen name from the fact that I used to wheel and deal tubes.
I still have my connections.
I am going to order a retube for my Mesa Rectifier in about 4-5 weeks.
Tubes get cheaper in bulk.
I offer to you, the tube buying public, a deal. If you want tubes, let me know what they are, what you want, and we'll figure it out.
We both can profit from the bulk buy.
Lets make an example: most tube heads have about 5 12ax7's in them, for the preamp... and 4 EL34's or 6550's.
Musicians friend: Groove Tubes 12ax7, $14
Fender 12ax7 $11
Svetlana El34 $40
Groove Tubes 6550 $95!!!!
Lets say you went with 5 groove tubes preamp, total $70 plus shipping, and 4 Svetlana EL34 at $160.
Total: $230 retube, plus shipping.
Now I come into play.
If we have 4 people with heads that want tubes, check out the price cut....
I can get 20 Svetlana EL34's for $9.80 each. I can get 20 Sovtek 12ax7 @$7.00 Total retube: $74.20 SAVINGS: $155, not counting shipping.
I can get almost any tube you can think of, but the price breaks come with ordering the same of any given tube. I plan to replace 5 12ax7's, (4) 6550's (matched) and two 300B's for the rectifier(I canget those for $49.00 each with an order of 10 or more.)
Anyway, I would like the price break too, so I'll split it with you guys.
Look me up if interested. I can also order you any weird or varied tube when I place my order, too, probably cheaper than you can find on your own. I only do this about once a year, so jump now.
Peace.
