I have a BRAND NEW NEVER USED Mesa 5Y3 rectifier tube. You Lonestar Special owners are who i'm talking to!! I'd like to trade it for 2 12ax7s with low hours. I'll sell for $25 shipped otherwise...
 
Are you looking for specific 12AX7's? I've got a few low hour tubes in my stash - some are Mesa Russian and I've got (if memory serves correctly) a couple of GE tubes as well...
 
I'd really just like to try some different tubes out in V1 and have spares as well. I currently have all JJs in my preamp. They are supposed to sound the best in the DCs for the most part, but I wouldn't mind to mess with the V1 slot's tube.

I'd take a Mesa and a GE as long as they are tested, known-good, and low hours! If you have any other non-Mesa tubes i'd be interested in then let me know...
 
I got home tonight and I've looked through my stash. Here is what I've got:

Tested & New:
I have two Mesa 12ax7-A Russian 2 (I bought a Lonestar Special 3 weeks ago and pulled these immediately to put EH tubes in)
I have two JAN Phillips 12at7 in the box.

Old & to be honest, I don't know if they work:
One RCA 12ax7
Two Sylvania 12ax7 with the big, black plates
One GE 12at7 in the box

If you want one of the Mesa tubes and the two JAN Phillips, RCA, two Sylvanias, and GE to play around with in exchange, I'm good with that. Or if you want both of the Mesas, fine too.
