Ok guys if you know loads about tube types here's a question for you.
I have a big box of various assorted tubes, some Mullards (yes!!!) and Philips etc.
I think the vast majority of them are old radio tubes (although some of these tubes are actually new).
I'll list the tube numbers and if any are suitable to be used in a guitar amp, can you let me know?
This is more of a finger-crossing exercise than anything really!!!
Any tubes that I can't read the number if it's worn off I've indicated with a '?'
Mullard ID5GP
Super Radiotron 6DQ6A
Mullard 5CM5
Philips Miniwatt 6CM5
Philips Miniwatt 6BZB
Mullard 6BL8
Mullard 12A3?
Philips 6BZ6
Philips Miniwatt 6EH7
Mullard 6CA4
12AU?
Super Radiotron 6HS8
Super Radiotron 6AV6
6EA6
Brimar EF80 (brand new with red caps over the prongs at the bottom of the tube!!!)
Super Radiotron 6KV8
Mullard 6N8
Philips Miniwatt 6BM8
Philips Miniwatt 6BX6
Philips Miniwatt 6B17
Mullard 6BL8
Mullard 6BX6
Mullard 6BQ5
Mullard 6BY7
That's pretty much it. As I said, I think most if not all are radio tubes, but no biggie. Bought the whole box, around 60 tubes, for AUD$10 at a flea market out of interest. And considering about 1/2 the tubes were in Mullard boxes, I took the chance!
Replys appreciated.
Thanks
