I've been looking around trying to get some information comparing the Electro Harmonix 12AX7EH and the Tesla/JJ 12AX7A.
I first looked at: http://www.tubestore.com/12ax7review.html
Then I called Lord Valve ( http://www.lordvalve.com ), told him that I was trying to get a Slash/Gary Moore lead tone out of my amp (Marshall JCM Slash) and he said that I should go with the EH's as they are more musical than the Tesla's. I was worried that the EH's wouldn't have as much gain as the Tesla's; he said that the EH's should have as much gain.
Has anybody had any experiences with BOTH types of tubes? Has anybody mixed them? I was thinking of putting a 12AX7EH in V1, and Tesla/JJ 12AX7As in V2 and V3.
