I have to disagree. I bought some EI 12ax7's years ago to use in a CJ pv8. I bought 6 since I had heard scuttlebutt about their unreliability. It was true. I bought 6. Four of them went noisy within hours. Two were usable. They sounded okay, but nothing special. They certainly didn't compare with nos Tele's that I got shortly thereafter. The Tele's sounded more powerful, more full bodied, yet clearer in detail.
