[Hammarlund] Speaking of Tubes ...

[Bob Young]

Russia and China have two or three tube factories that still make them along with many other audio tubes, the better guitar and bass amps still use tubes, think Marshall and Fender. Groove tubes buys tubes from other manufacturers and rebrands them. I have two bass amps each with (6) 6550's in them, they're almost like hauling around a DX-100, haha! They're the best sounding bass amp made bar none. Early ones used 6146B's.
