This Estey Magnatone does not have the True Vibrator circuit, however it has been adapted to us 6V tubes instead of the much more pricey and rare 7189A so what your are basically getting is a vintage Deluxe Reverb amp for $300. Not bad at all.
Note: Magnatone quality and construction is on par with same era Fender (if not better). These amps sold for higher prices at the time than the Fender counterparts.

Magnatone MP-1 amplifier. 20 watts, reverb and tremolo. 2 x 6V6 power tubes and 4 x 12AX7's. Someone has removed the original power tube sockets and put in the 6V6's. Sounds good. Has two separate channels; one for microphone input and one for instruments. The microphone input sounds a bit darker than the instrument channel. The instrument channel has the reverb and tremolo effects, as well as bass and treble tone controls. There is a recording/normal switch that reduces overall volume in the recording mode. $300 or best offer.
Location: Rock Hill, SC
