I am looking for a pair of 12ax7 or 12ax7a tubes. Prefer nos with black plate or lightly used pair. RCA, Raytheon, Sylvania, Mullard, or Telefunken. I acquired around 40 nos tubes mainly RCA in boxes dated the late 50;s and early 60's. I would be open to trading if I have something you need.

    I imagine your latest acquisition of 40 tubes did not include 12ax7 . . . do you have any 6sn7 that you would part with?

    No 12ax7's in the batch. Bought some Raytheon Baldwin Organ black plates for a good price. I actually do have some 6sn7 tubes I would part with. PM me with what you need. I am going to post a list of what I have in the next few days on the FS forum.
