I need some 50H B26 tubes for a guitar amp. Anyone know where I can buy some?

Thanks

Peter

Hello ,
What do the valves look like ? Are the things 7 pin ? Thinking that the number may be 50H5 .

I believe the tube is similar or exactly like the 50EH5.
It was used in some OTL amplifiers in the mid 60's.

Hi,

Yep...That's the one.

Those are Japanese tubes without any directly useable equivalent.
Unfortunately they've all gone to the unobtainium fields in the great blue tube sky.

Cheers,

EDIT: Apparantly there are still some survivors around:
