Back in time to October 2018.....

A favourite shot of the rowan (which I loved) which sat at the back of the office when I ended my working career at Brimar Ltd where I was the IT Administrator. The best job in all the world, loved going tio work every single day. A great bunch of people too!

Brimar Ltd was a UK-based company specializing in the design and manufacture of high-quality display systems for military and professional applications. Established in 1922, Brimar built a reputation for producing reliable and durable display solutions, including cathode ray tubes (CRTs), flat panel displays, and optoelectronic systems. Our products were widely used in defense, aerospace, and industrial sectors, providing critical visual interfaces for various applications.

Trying out a Brimar 6V6G in my ‘71 Fender Champ. Its interesting how different it is from the RCA 6V6 I normally have in there. A little less volume but a bit more breakup. The Brimar 6V6GT I have breaks up much quicker than either of the other tubes. I’d use it more but its very microphonic. The Brimar 6V6G, on the other hand, is just ever so slightly microphonic so it will be usable. Amazingly, the big coke-bottle shaped tube fits fine. #brimar #nostubes #fenderchamp #vintagetubes #vintageamps
