I posted this before==DIY Vacuum Tube (Triode):Well, if you can't find them on Ebay--then make what you need yourself?
A French Gentleman making his own Vacuum Tubes (Triode?). The Website is in French--but scroll down to bottom for video (no narration--just background music). Simply amazing.

Re: DC step down transformerMost of the GM versions had double throw vibrators that were connected to a push-pull primary winding.

Sure they couldn't compare to the reliability or efficiency of modern electronics, but they were alive, they were warm, or even downright hot, and they glowed. They were alive! Not at all like the cold, inanimate little stones that power the things we have today.

Re: DC step down transformerJust about any electric guitar player will tell you that vacuum tube technology is still alive and well, though finding quality tubes is getting harder all the time. I love me my 6L6's, 6V6's, 6550's, and EL34's. I'm wearing my Tshirt which extolls the virtues of the 6L6 today, as a matter of fact. Rock on!

Actually, all joking aside, a 93 year old lady! Sad part is, where I live, once she's gone there's no one to take her place -

I understand that. I have a friend who is a piano tuner. That's not what he does for a living anymore because all the real pianos are being replaced by electronic versions. Few people can tell the difference, it seems. -
