I believe Taylor may not make the RF Parts house brand.  I spoke with an
engineer there a couple of years ago when retubing my SB-220 and he strongly
recommended the RF Parts branded tubes.  They cost perhaps $10 more.  They
appear in the list just above the Taylor tubes.  I got the RF Parts tubes
and they are great!  I know nothing more about the Taylor tubes.  It may be
that they are all the same except that the warranty may differ.  It is worth
a phone call to RF Parts as they are people that will talk with you AND
LISTEN.
