Sound Projects Amp in Athens GA for $150

Note - this little Sound Projects may be similar to the R100 meaning it may use a 50C5 power tube - or it could be a 50L6 - either way it will be low wattage transformerless - unless you get lucky and it is an R400 style with the EL84 also there is no relation between Sound Projects Co. and Valco - the Sound Projects people went on to form Lectrolab which was a very cool amp company and they were in Cicero IL which is a suburb of Chicago - but Valco is a separate co.

Small Valco-made tube amp (Sound Projects) from the 1950s - approx 4-5 watts - completely recapped and brought up to specs by Steve Hunter in Athens. This small amp (approx 11" x 13") is in amazing condition especially since its cabinet is made of pressed cardboard. It has a beautiful tweed-like finish with excellent grill cloth - 8" alnico speaker - great tone! This is a collectible amp at a player's amp price... Priced for quick sale - $150 cash No pics - sorry - call for questions (706) 549-7286

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.
