This is what you need - http://www.watfordvalves.com/product_detail.asp?id=1784

These are very cheap for NOS tubes. Do not waste your money on EH tubes which will be tonally inferior and only last a tenth of the lifespan of a good NOS tube.

It's always worth giving Watford valves a call anytime you're thinking of re-valving an amp. It's just about the best source of knowledgeable, wide ranging, in depth advice you can get in my opinion.
