Vintage Tube Amp in SF Bay area for $175











I saw this earlier and wasn't sure if I should list it but this does look like a well madeamp. the architecture is very clean (see how the Rectifier tube and the Power Cap Can are on the left next to the big Power transformer) implying this could be a Chicgo made amp such as a Valco or a Webster - the seller thinks it is a Danelectro but he is probably thinking of Dano Leader and this is definitely not a Leader (this is alot more power and size than that).

Vintage Amp - $175 (albany / el cerrito)

No maker name, prototype? Looks like a Danelectro cab. This is from the 50's, if not the 40's. Hand wired, point-to-point, all tube including rectifier.12" alnico speaker. Volume (goes to 100 !), bass and treble controls.2 inputs plus built in mic connection, the old single point type. In xlnt condition, save for a stain on the bottom. This thing looks overbuilt, with top quality components (email for larger fotos). The perfect "bedroom amp"- the volume is 90% of my Gretsch 6150 ( a Valco made Champ type amp), but brighter. Likes pedals. Crunchy breakup

IMPORTANT NOTE TO ALL READERS

I am reposting items here that are listed on CRAIGSLIST throughout the USA. I am not selling any of these items and I cannot facilitate the sale of anything here - so please do not comment or post questions like "Is this still available?" or "I am interested in your guitar please call me, etc." You need to contact the seller directly by calling the phone number listed on the post or by going to the CL listing and emailing them. NEW FEATURE: Click on the title of the CL Listing inside my post to LINK thru to the original Post. If the original CL listing is deleted the item most likely is no longer available. Thanks for checking out my blog and GOOD LUCK!



Please don't call, contact, bother or harass these sellers long after their post is expired. Take for granted if the listing is over 30 days old that the guitar or amp is LONG GONE! Thank you.
