Help identifying tube

[marshall2020]

I found another old tube I can’t identify.
It has a square getter tilted at 45
Black ladder plates. I measure plates 16mm
Orange/red paint barely left
12 is stamped in the open space between 2 pins on the bottom
I appreciate any help

Look like original RCA fender tubes from the 60s.
That looks exactly what originally came out of my untouched 69 vibrolux

Lemme fine one and post it

I have a mystery tube that came in a used amp I bought a few years ago. I'll have to dig it out, but I suspect it's an RCA as well.

But this is the same thing

That's a different tube; Sylvania Long Grey Plate Circle Getter 12AX7. Different getter, mica, plate structure and copper rods vs nickel for RCA. Says RCA but it's relabeled.

@marshall2020 More pics would help but most likely RCA but maybe Westinghouse 12AX7 long black plate.

Can you please take pictures of the getter and micas from a couple of angles?

Sylvania used copper rods for their minatures and RCA used nickel. The plate structure too.

CDawg, you’re definitely a good resource to have around here

Thank you for the additional pictures. Helps to see things from lots of angles.

That's a RCA long black plate. Late 1950s I believe.
