Should I use them in a build or frame it and hang it on the wall? Anybody know the model number or series name?

Very cool indeed :rock:
I wonder how much voltage those little guys will take?
May be best to just keep it as a cool piece of "amp geek" art
 
500v should be good for most smaller amps in the preamp and PI stages. the biggest voltage I have ever seen off a plate of a 12AX7 or any other preamp tube is around 390 volts, so a 500v cap should be good to go. Surges can be handled normally, and if you already have 'Cushion' built in, I would just use the an not worry one minute.
