Who makes good 12AT7 tubes

[Mikelamury]

Just curious about who makes good 12AT7 tubes? I've never needed to buy them before but I do now. I'm basically asking for the best quality option for bang for your buck. Not necessarily the cheapest but the best performing for the price. Thanks to everyone for the information.

It depends on what kind of tone you are looking for. Search out some tube comparisons online. There are tons of them

I've found JAN-Phillips 12AT7 to be pretty good quality and long lasting as a reverb driver.

Get an old Tung Sol from Amplified Parts.

me too, i have a handful of these and have used em in my fender reverb amps with great success. they work and sound good and last a very long time. no idea what they go for these days but i can say i have one in the pi spot of my main amp and it still tests good after years of use

I just found a seller on ebay with a case of new JAN-phillips 12AX7's selling them for $10 each. That's the cheapest I've found any type of tube! Definitely going to get a few.

Those Kodak Labled Mullard 4024's are my go to 12AT7. Have several on hand and have been using them in particular for Effects loop and Reverb drivers for years. Have one in both my PRS amps fr the loop drivers.

I'm not any tube guru by any means,

I've had great luck with these mullards in high gain amps in V1 spot

and for overall amp quietness,smoothness I have been very pleased with these EHX

Good to know I have 4 of them going into the Marshall before practice tonight, and I love your tone.

Played the JCM 2000 with the Mullards tonight. I can't remember that amp ever sounding better. Even the rest of the band noticed the difference. Very crisp with tons of grind.
