What are Marshall fitting as standard?

Does anyone know what make tubes marshall are fitting to their valve amps these days? I know they are fitting jj tesla to the 100w handwired stacks,( the ones with the brown grille cloth), just wondering about their other amps, paticulary the 18watt amps.

cheers.

I had a 2061X for a short while. It came with JJ's and had a Marshall sticker on the base. I would guess the 18 would be the same.

I have the 1974x and the EL84s are JJs, but Marshall branded. I do not know what 12AX7 they use. Those are Marshall branded also but do not look like the JJ ECC83 or ECC83s.

They were using Ei preamp tubes a while back. At least that's what came in my 1987x, with SEDs for power all Marshall branded.

To be honest, JJ's are pretty good all around. IF you can get NOS Mullards even better!
