Content | A four-pack of our power pentode tubes designed for incredibly sparkly clean tones.
Since the invention of the amplifier, tubes have remained the most fascinating component of electronic sound technology. You donʼt have to be a tweaked-out tone freak to know that the kind of tube you use in your favorite amp plays an enormous role in shaping the personality of your sound. As certified tone maniacs ourselves, we offer a wide variety of premium hand-selected tubes to meet the tonal tastes of all breeds of musicians. We proudly offer tubes that deliver sun-drenched California cleans, as well as tubes that infuse your sound with an overcast British grind. Our various preamp tubes complement your ampʼs power stage while maintaining incredibly low noise and minimal microphonics. One thing all our tubes have in common is the airtight quality control they must undergo before they fall into your hands (careful- these little guys get hot!). When we say hand-selected, weʼre talking about an actual person individually testing each BUGERA valve! Tone means everything to us because we know it means everything to you, and we take every measure to make sure our tubes really give your sound the "soul of valves.” | These are the gold pin version of the standard ECC83. These tubes are immediately discerni-ble from other 12AX7. They have a construction that is similar to a frame-grid tube - similar to the Telefunken ECC803s. This construction makes them very rugged and reliable. This is one of the best new 12AX7 for any guitar amp. It is very musical - rich with great harmonics. An excellent tube in all Marshall amps in the three preamp positions.
Factory selected tubes with gold pins. These tubes provide high gain without the usual noise and microphonic problems you would expect. This is great sound and value for your money.
ECC83S is 12AX7 high gain pre-amplifying double triode. Thanks to its design it also peforms with very low noise and microphonics. Harmonically rich, with a detailed low end and a warm high end.
12AX7/ECC83/7025 / 9Pin Socket Noval | The JJ ECC81 / 12AT7 tube is a low noise and low microphonic preamp tube. A good choice for phase inverters and reverb circuits calling for 12AT7 tubes.
- 9 pin miniature preamp tube (amplification factor = 60),
- Less gain than a 12AX7
- Preferred by blues and jazz guitarists alike

Some claim the 6L6EH has been "Modeled after the vintage RCA 6L6GC "blackplate" and the 6L6EH features large plate dimensions".
To see what a real blackplate looks like see the picture on the right showing a RCA and a TAD blackplate small bottle 6L6.
Both are real black plate constructions and great for vintage guitar amps for pleasing smooth and fine complex tone structure. Best for any classic Fender Amplifier.
The 6L6EH is a very good choice for more modern hard rocking guitar sounds and recommened for this.

Selected ECC83 for the big & warm clean sounds (great for HiFi too!) and mellow top-end when pushed to overdrive. Our recommendation if you want to emphasize punchy mids. Especially great when pushed into a fat overdrive.
All preamp tubes labeled Premium Selected have passed the following tests:
- Low Noise Test
- Microphonic Test
- Gain Test
- Sonic Tests
- Shock Tests
- Listening Tests
- Balanced Output Test
Premium Selected
We call the tubes SELECTED which have passed above tests and thus qualify as reliable all-round tubes of their type.Typically this is around 30-60% from a batch that receives the SELECTED label from TAD.
For applications in particularly sensitive functions such as V1 or input stage with combo amps, V1 in high-gain amps, tube microphones and phono preamps, we recommend using the respective HIGHGRADE selection
Matching and Selecting Options for Preamp Tubes
Matching in Pairs for preamp tubes means that two tubes show identical gain, hence, four characteristically identical systems.
This matching method includes our Balance-Selection. We highly recommend this matching method for hi-fi systems.
TAD Premium Selected/Highgrade tubes are guaranteed for a period of 6 months (according to terms of warranties)
for the quality criteria mentioned above.

The Classic 6L6 Sound – Excellent Tone and Maximum Lifetime!
The TAD 6L6GCM-STR REDBASE is a latest 6L6GC designed and built to claim to be the best 6L6 type tube ever manufactured.
A damn high claim, but we are sure that we have achieved exactly that.
In terms of sound, the TAD 6L6GCM-STR REDBASE produces the powerful but always defined bass response known from the legendary american built NOS RCA 6L6GC, with clear, unobtrusive and yet transparent highs. In every setting, the TAD 6L6GCM-STR REDBASE responds directly and with noticeable dynamics, from buttery soft and warm to powerful and brutal without losing any details or depth.
This makes the TAD 6L6GCM-STR an effective upgrade for every amplifier using 6L6GC or 5881 tubes; also repalces any EL37, CV586, VT115A, 6L6GA, 6L6GB, 6L6WGB, 6L6WGC, STR-440, STR-454, 6p3p, 6p3s, 6p3s-e etc.
The TAD 6L6GCM-STR REDBASE combines the structural advantages of the robust American Philips / Sylvania 6L6GC, also known as MESA 6L6GC-STR415, and the sound quality of the legendary RCA 6L6GC tubes.
Silky highs, defined, deep bass and lots of headroom recommend the TAD 6L6GCM-STR REDBASE for lively clean sounds as well as a powerful broadband power amplifier for multi-channel amps.
