Members aussy Posted October 3, 2010 Members Share Posted October 3, 2010 What tubes you got there? Hopefully some will be useful for guitar amps and not just radios. I actually just went to a huge charity rummage sale today and asked if they had any vacuum tubesApparently some old collector was going to donate a bunch, but he passed away before he couldUnfortunate for both me and him I did manage to pick up an old digital yamaha fm synth for 10 bucks thoughsounds strangely analog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Operator Posted October 3, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 3, 2010 They were mostly rectifier tubes, or types similar to them. A couple 5U4s or 5U3s or something. Some serial numbers I had never seen before but started with 5 or 6. Some of them were RCAs, but they all looked in dubious shape. Also, I don't have any amp with a tube rectifier to test them with, and I had no money on me at all, so I opted not to buy them. Still, it was fun and exciting to rifle through the box and inspect them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably ripped out of a 30's or 40's radio. Not useful for guitar amps, but cool tubes nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted October 3, 2010 Members Share Posted October 3, 2010 Some Star Wars figures! So cool!It's tempting for me to start collecting my favorite toys from the Seventies - Marvel Action Figures, Shogun Warriors, Micronauts... - but I collect too much stuff as it is and have no where to put it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SpectralJulian Posted October 3, 2010 Members Share Posted October 3, 2010 My Dad has an antique sale and we also do flea markets, so he goes out and picks on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. . . we get radio tubes a lot. I rarely find any useful power tubes, but I got half a dozen 12ax7s out of a box recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
