My VH4 was bought used and I was wondering what tubes come installed from the factory? (Preamp and power) The power tubes that are installed are a matched quartet of GT-EL34s by Groove Tubes.

Thanks!
 
I have a fairly recent one. The output tubes are TAD/Shuguang EL34B's and the preamp tubes are all Ruby/Shuguang 12ax7/7025's.

If you need new output tubes, you may want winged =C= , or the new Shuguang EL34BHT's. The EL34BHT's are apparently a revised EL34B's with higher voltage handling, and presumably better reliability.

As far as which tubes originally came with the amp, your amp is probably a bit like mine, though I know that v1 was a selected low noise EI in the past, and I believe is now a JJ ecc803. --Do not take my word on this however.
