Better something than nothing :)
Good to know what I have. I just might try to build some simplest possible 
guitar amp or something. In that case, would it be a shame to use modern 
amps with the tube in the circuit, or should I try to keep it amp only 
circuit?
Also, there's a guy here in my country selling the very same tube for ~13 
dollars US. Is it worth it?
