Alamo Futura 2x12 tube amp - Collector Quality in Minn MN for $300




Okay, I am no big fan of Alamo amps - though they made some cool looking guitars - but this Futura is in unbelievable condition - it looks like a brand new amp. Don't expect Fender twin Reverb quality tone - and WTF are those tubes?? I've never heard of a few of them. The Futura was usually a single 12" speaker with a pair of 6V6 tubes and a 5Y3 rectifier - but this one is totlly different. A rare bird indeed.

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.

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.
