Ken used 1N4007 in all 11 spots on every TW I've seen gutshots of...
I am using UF4007 in my current builds; they are supposed to be "quieter" than the 1Nxxx parts...

The ones in the TO-220 case. Just an opinion. 1n4007s cost .04 apiece. These are $1.57. Nice!

I've used HexFred (TO220 ac package) on my 6V6Plexi built, happy of that.
I plan on using them to rectify my Express as well.
Still going with 1N4007 on the daisy chains on the tubes though
