    807s what a great old tube, I used them in my AC30 inspired build in the mid 60s

    Yea, they sounded nice, but the anode on the top could be a bit scary when poking around after the caps deteriorated.

    Yep, my elbow put a hole in the fibro wall of the rhythm guitarists garage when I got a 385v nudge from one of the anode caps.

    I have a pair of 807's that I'm trying to sell on Ebay. Not many show much interest in them these days....
