Will the used tube amp market suffer because of a lack of available tubes. EH news on Russian exports stopping until end of 2022. That’s a lot of brands. It Made me stop and think about my recent search.
This (upheaval) too will pass. Get what you need for the next 5 yrs and forget it. If you haven't already done that it may be too late. Plus all tubes aren't made in Russia
A retread of a retread. The events in Ukraine are terrible and require the world’s full attention. All commodities move with market forces and and market forces are largely the result of supply, demand and the paranoia of the human being. You could make an argument that ONLY point to point wired tube gear with no transistors anywhere make the most sense since they are immune to electromagnetic forces unleashed by nuclear weapons. C’mon, stop the hand wringing. Its a mildly silly but unfortunately predictable.
I did jump on a Sovtek rectifier for my Hagerman Cornet II although i could use another rectifier but it would require changing capacitors which i can't do. price was the same as a year ago.
