Well you're more than welcome to have the tube if you have a suitable
amp. OTOH if you know of an easy circuit it would be fun to build an
amp that goes to 11.
Sure, my Fender tube amp can use the 12ax7 in its preamp circuit, altho
they last a long time, its the big 6L6 or 33 tubes that go, and of
course, they are far more expensive than a 12ax7
All of the tube amp circuits are all based on work done by RCA in the
20s and 30s. And all are pretty basic, especially if you cheat and use a
solid state rectifier for the DC power supply. Just be careful, the A
voltages in any tube amp can kill you, they are at least 70 volts AC,
often more, and have more than enough current to do serious damage.
