Default Help for replacement tubes!

Anyone out there who can help:
Looking to replace the tubes that came with my amp. To be used for blues playing. The amp is a Peavey Delta Blues amp. Any good suggestions?

Depending on what you're wanting it should be pretty easy to find tubes for your Peavey. I believe your model uses 12AX7's and EL84s. You should be able to find those at any tube dealer. Here are my top 3 places to get tubes.

If you want 'new' production tubes, I really like JJ/Tesla. Bob at Eurotubes is a good/ reliable source for those. He's really good at picking out tubes for certain situations/amps. He's very friendly and always ready to talk shop.

Eurotubes

Another place for New tubes is Groove Tubes. Groove tubes buys/tests other manufactures tubes and re-brands them as "Groove Tubes". Once again, I'd email them to see what they suggest for your situation.

Home Page @ Groove Tubes

If you want to drop some $$$ on NOS tubes, I'd go with Mike at KCA NOS Tubes. I'd email him or call to find out exactly what he has in stock and reccomends for your amp.

KCA NOS Tubes. Audio tubes for guitar amplifiers and audiophile equipment. 12AX7, 6L6GC, 12ay7, el34, el84, Fender amplifier,5AR4, 5U4GB, cv4004, 6SN7, 8417, 7027, gz34, Mullard, EF86, 6ca7, 6bq5, 7025, 12at7


Best,
Matt

I use Doug's Tubes - real friendly guys and they help you pick what you need for "your" sound... I got some new and a few NOS and they were at my house in 3 days (Postal Priority/Insured)
