GTEL34 tubes

[djabrail]

Hey guys

I'm gonna have to order some new power tubes for my TSL 100 watt head.
It has Groove tube GTEL34-m in it now and one of them is bad.I can't afford a matched quad set of NOS:-(.
I've been looking at another matched set of GTEL34-m,JJs and mullards.
Does the same factory make all of these now and just relabel them?
Also I've read that there are some fakes on e-bay is there any dealer I should avoid?

Thanks in advance for any info and opinions

I've had good luck with various eBay sellers, there are a lot of EL-34 quad sets available at reasonable prices about $100. JJ, Electro-Harmonix even Mullard. Most tubes now days come from Eastern Europe or China.
