How good are Japanese made tubes ?


I recently got some Japanese 12AX7 and 12AT7 tubes. Japanese tubes seem to be very rare. Is there any collector interest ?

Matsushita, using Mullard equipment, made some great tubes in Japan during the early 1970's.

I had a pair of Matsushita 12AX7, labeled Westinghouse, that were absolutely fabulous.

If you can find any of these tubes, they generally go for a song and IMO are great values.
