Shuguang The Red Plate Pentode (to the tune of Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer)
You know Mullard and Siemens and Philips and Tungsram
Osram and Amperex and Mazda and Adzam
But do you recall
The most famous pentode of all?
Shuguang the red plate pentode
Had a very glowing plate
And if you ever used it
It might seal your tube amps’ fate
All of the other pentodes
Used to laugh and call it names
They never let poor Shuguang
Run in any tube gear
Then one music-less NOS tube eve
An audiophile came to say
Shuguang with your plates so bright
Won’t you drive my amps tonight?
Then how the other pentodes loved him
As they showed their getter flash with glee
Shuguang the red plate pentode
You’ll go down in history!
