@lg1 The article did not mention that WE had any intention in making the EL34. Guess we'll see down the road what possible other decisions they make
Update on Production of Western Electric Tubes
In this month's issue of Stereophile , Julie Mullins stated in her Re-Tales column that Western Electric is working on tooling for specific parts , but intends on adding 12AX7, 12AT7, 12AU7, 6550 and 6L6 tubes to its lineup. Specific pricing was not mentioned, but she does quote WE President & Owner Charlie Whitener as stating that WE will not be able to meet Russian and Chinese tube prices due to the labor cost differential; and that it will likely be 9 months to a year before they are able to deliver quantity of tubes.
A degree of good news in my humble opinion

@twoleftears - Yes, see below link. It is for gathering information for their planning tube production lineup expansion, however that doesn’t mean all tube types would be produced.
