The Siemens 12AX7 is a very nice tube with the coveted "European sound". It has a combination of clarity, lean tight bass, & very sweet extended treble that is never harsh and slight warmth in the mids. It sounds sort of like a cross-between a Telefunken & Amperex. It has a refined and 'elegant' tone. Excellent string-to-string definition. Overdrive is clear and detailed with great treble 'push' and definition, and lots of harmonic saturation!
Tubes are 100% Guaranteed. Tested Strong on a Digital Amplitrex AT-1000 and B&K 707 Mutual Conductance Tester

'DEFECTIVE' ITEMS AND 'ITEMS NOT AS DESCRIBED'
Descriptions of tubes in our listings as having a certain 'tone' or being 'quiet' are descriptions of that tube type in general, and not the specific tube in the listing. Tubes are ONLY considered 'defective' if they arrive broken or shorted (no sound). Terms like 'microphonic, ' 'hums' or 'noisy' are subjective descriptions (since a tube will perform differently in every circuit), and in no way constitute a 'defective' item or an 'item not as described'. A tube is considered 'item not as described' ONLY when you receive a different brand or type of tube than what was purchased. Please see RETURN POLICY BELOW.

Testing – How We’re DifferentWe carefully screen all tubes we sell for authenticity, and also listen to the tubes to judge sound quality. We discard 20-25% of tubes other sellers may call “good, ” if they don’t pass our screening standards. All pre-amp tubes are tested for emissions, shorts, gas, and leaks on high-quality, calibrated Mutual Conductance tube testers with line level adjustment, to tweak unit calibration for every tube we test. And whenever possible, we include photos of the test results of your tube so you can see for yourself. Be certain that you are purchasing quality, premium items.While we offer an unconditional money-back guarantee for every tube we sell, we cannot guarantee that you will get the same test results at home, since there are too many variables involved with vintage tube testing, which is more of an art than a science. (For example, differing home voltages can give different readings on the same tube with the same brand and same model of tube tester). You can return a tube for any reason.Shipping:COMBINED SHIPPING within the United States for up to 5 tubes via USPS First Class Mail. Most packages will arrive in 2-3 days within the Continental United States. Our stated processing time is 2 Business Days, although we ship packages out the next day whenever possible.
