I have new production Tungsol gold -mullard -genalex gold -NOS sylvania-GE-Philips 5751 -RCA-Realistic made in korea ?- telefunken-you name it ive tried it most likely NOS mullard certainly !

The HiFi junkies are tube snobs extraordinaire so my info reading has Jadis Amplification Ordering 12ax7 tubes labled Jadis in gold from PSvane which only make the Gold Treasure series design 12ax7 at $80.00-$125.00 a matched pair and the light came on humm

I went back to the $20.99 per pair Gold labled Jadis 12ax7 page at the bay got those to try !

Now i find a short plate genalex 12ax7 new designed tube targeting the guitar amp crowd and no gold tassle pins for $20.00 a piece.
Short plate tubes like being pushed in cascade preamps so i have one in route so i will try these 2 NEW 12ax7 tubes soon !

The Genalex i have i luv , but the long plate and real high gain dont work well .
Tungsol gold 12ax7 has been the best new overall rock tube ive heard i belive that keeps the highs from any harshness imho.

But there may be another badass 12ax7 unnoticed so far as the new Genalex and PSvane labled Jadis with a decent price for a change !
I will try them next and by monday 19th i should have a idea of the gain and ect:

My single coil p90 Humbucker sized pups need just the right gravy mix for the singing highs and growling bends to be right !
Smooth highs are hard to get so great highs are needed and slide sounds fantastic but it can get biting so the right tube is welcome.

I try a new 12ax7 tube when i can and i just found these 2 new production by accidently scouring the 12ax7 pages lol !
OH CRAP i said after i found the PSvane made Jadis also came out with a 5751 gold lable also .

Maybe some have allready tried these .
I welcome any info , til monday 19 .
Be rockin
 
I'm confused, so which ones are the new tubes you like?
 
Not to be harsh, but nuke that fkn post and clean it off the page... Can't read it, can't understand it, and Monday has nothing to do with the 19th - furthermore, punctuation and spelling are dismal, so GTFO.

+ 1

:doh:
 
+ 2. I have no clue what you are referring to or which tube is the best and for which price. ?
 
First i gave a example of the tubes i tried and later how i found the new tubes and lastly that i will try the 2 i ordered and let you know if there suitable for guitar amps that i have.
The tubes i found were the new Genalex 12ax7 shortplate and the Jadis labled 12ax7 short plate tubes.

I have not ordered the Jadis 5751 yet, so actually there may be 3 new tubes that could be very good on the market untried for guitar amps !
I could not find a single review on any of these tubes being tried in guitar amps.

Jadis ordered 12ax7 tubes from PSvane who make Full Music designed Treasure hifi tubes and there expencive,so there is a hint right there .
These may be exceptional tubes,sorry you could not follow the posting but no matter .
At $20.00 a piece for a very good tube is cool !
 
Sounds like an advertisement to me, and not a very good one at that, despite the fact that English is not your primary language.
 
I dont know what calender i got that date from,monday the 16th.

Careful reading for yourself like i did gives you information that you can use.
If by reading that PSvane makes the best new production 12ax7 available as the price is rediculous and they have mark1 and mark 2 design only ,then hopefully they use the current design for the high end audio companys like Jadis amplification .

So Jadis is selling there stock for what a tungsol cost i thought this would be a cool tube to try out !
Ive never heard a PSvane 12ax7 in anything myself so reading the comparisons like the mega dollar $$$$ Shiny plate Telefunken 12ax7 is still a tad better than the Psvane because the highs are smoother , smoother is welcome for my amps.

So i spelled it out as plain as i have time on this tube .
The other tube is the Genalex 12ax7 short plate,ive never seen this tube , only the long plate ones that i have.
They sound big and have a even EQ and under mild OD are great but push a long plate into hard OD and they loose it and squeal and do really weird stuff .

These are the other new production tube, since it should handle a cascade tone stack i didnt want to keep the info to myself,others like me try stuff all the time.
Jadis and the Genalex are going to get pushed as hard as the Rebel 30 head can, Then a Fulltone GT 500 pedal will scream into it some more !

I dont see why some folks cant comprehend the gist of what im doing, i thought it may help some folks to try other tubes than the same old mediocre tubes the amps came with and crummy new tubes there pushing.

If any body has the Jadis 5751 tubes i would luv to here from you, i spent my wad on the 12ax7 tubes before i saw these !
Other info is hidden between pages in books.
The news is what someone wants you to know,not what really is happening,read between the lines folks !

long plate mullards that so many love in their marshalls, RCA ladder plates, sylvania 6 holers and other larger plate tubes are loved in many amps for many reasons. there isnt a "lightning in the bottle" by any means for any tube related tone application, IMHO.

owever, in some cases, i agree; shorter plates can be more stable in combo amps though, but not necessarily BETTER sounding, just not as unstable and prone to noise/microphonics).

what isn't about the long plate Genalex that you dont think works well?

i'll discuss this shit with you all day as i love talking tone/vacuum tubes, and so do many others here. i love reading other people's experiences and findings/audio interpretations (clips do help)!, but please, as has been noted here, try to be a little more clear, less vague and slightly less "advertising" my friend....

Jadis tubes are just Shuguang tubes with fancy lettering...

Relabled tubes are a pain in the ass because you dont know what they,are.

Well , we now know what these are, but relabeling is misleading IMO.
 
NOS RFT in V1 for me... if you can find em reasonably priced on ebay from someone in mother russia!

Oh, but it does matter. Being able to understand and follow one's comments absofreakinglutely matters.

Stop posting jibberish like a kid on a cell phone. Get on a real keyboard, write as close as you can to actual grammar, and do check spelling from time to time.
I don't like to hound people for bad grammar, bad sentence structure, sentence fragments, and spelling. Hey, we all misspell at times and our grammar ain't perfect all the time.
But you, you can't handle any of those things. Your posts are a jumble of all the mistakes one can make and then state that it doesn't matter if anyone can follow.
Well, if it don't matter, then why in the hell are you posting?
If we can't follow and understand what you're trying to say, then it's all pointless in the first place.
 
The guys posts are difficult to read yes, but if we end up learning about a new 12ax7 that is worthwhile, I'll wade through and see if there is anything to it.

We don't have to be so hard on the guy. English may not be his first language or he may be an amazing guitarist that didn't spend enough time on grammar. Regardless, I didn't come here to read a term paper, I came to talk gear and unless this is a horrible Spam job, I'm going to look into these.
 
[re: Chubtone's post above] Commendable.

Gratitude, compassion, and kindness.

Thanks for re-railing this thread. I will attempt to go back and absorb what it is that's being communicated here :salute:

To the OP (original poster), I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize for my rather quick dismissal of this thread and its contents upon first, and fourth, read. It's not like me to get irritated with posts on a forum, but there seemed to be a sequence of literary matters that had me sent off into a tizzy. For this I am sorry.

Sincerely,
Mo
