This listing is for one (1) metal vacuum tube shield.
$5 discount if you'll accept the ugly one. IT HAS PATCHY RUST ALL OVER THE OUTSIDE. The original metal color covers about 60% of the outside and rust is the remaining 40%. The rest of the stock looks like the photos.
We have dozens of different vintage designs in stock. We sort them by their style or method of attaching to the tube or tube socket, declared here as 4-pinch, J-Slot, Snap-on, Tapered, and Wrap. An image of each type is included in this listing, and each listing of any given style has an image of all the tube shields of that type so you can determine exactly what you need.
This tube shield, given the Sound by Doc code, S80-02, uses the Snap-on (with a satisfying click ONTO a ridge around the tube socket base, or INTO spring clips at the tube socket base) style. It has no notches at the top of the shield, and is designed to hold any tube the size of a octal tubes like the 6V6GT and 6SN7GT. These shields were original to vintage equipment from various brands.
Please note that this will fit around the glass (and barely around the base) of 6SN7, but it is too short to reach the bottom of the base of most of them. For a tall-boy, it just barely covers all the glass. Like S80-01, but with an open top.
If you need a different number of shields of this type, just make us an offer with the same per-unit cost, subject to a minimum purchase of $16 plus shipping. The shipping charge will remain the same. Thanks!
