Quote from effects forum "I can see your point about Bob at EuroTubes. The sad reality is that there are not as many tube brands as you think. Here is the real deal that the companies would rather you didn't know...
Mesa Boogie = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia) and Shugulang (china)
Ruby Tubes = buys and relabels Shugulang (china)
Fender = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia)
Marshall = buys and relabels Ei (yugoslovia) and Winged C (russian svetlana factory)
Groove Tubes = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia) and makes their own 6L6GC Tubes here in the USA.
Peavey = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia) and Shugulang (china)
Electro-Harmonix = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia)
TAD [Tube Amp Doctor] = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia) and Shugulang (china)
PM Tubes = buys and relabels Sovtek (russia) and Shugulang (china)
JJ - Makes *ALL* of their own tubes in their own factory (slovakia)
Ei - Makes *ALL* of their own tubes in their own factory (yugoslovia)
Sovtek - Makes *ALL* of their own tubes in their own factory (russia)
Shugulang - Makes *ALL* of their own tubes in their own factory (russia)
So unless your willing to spend crazy money for new-old-stock tubes like RCA and Telefunken brands made in the 50s and 60s, then the real question becomes...
Do you want Ei, JJ, Shugulang or Sovtek Tubes? "

but if i'm not wrong... EH controls sovtek or something like that.. so nothing wrong with that, i feel.. n they deserve to command a higher price for the branding goodwill they have achieved.
if it makes you feel better seeing EH toobs in your amps, go for it man.. it's all about the looks! ;D
