I believe these to be new/old stock. A rare find indeed. This is a trio of GE 6550 JAN series tubes, manufactured in the 1980’s (Mfg code seems to indicate 06/84). I obtained them during the mid 90’s and held onto them for a while because I’m a guitarist, producer and studio engineer/tech. You never know when you might need something like this to fix an amp or classic piece of gear. But I never used this batch! Anyway, they are in original boxes, and there’s even an old price tag on one of them from a long ago era (they weren’t cheap back then either!). These GE tubes are like the holy grail of 6550’s, and I’ve seen them going for almost $300 each online. I’m selling them for $180 each, or all 3 for $495. Contact me with an offer for 1 or 2 tubes sold individually.

Sorry to say, I do not have a way of testing or matching the tubes. However, if for any reason they do not work as expected, I’ll accept returns within 10 days (buyer pays return shipping plus $15 restocking fee.)
