1964-1966 Magnatone by Estey Model 401A tube practice/recording amp - XLNT condition! - Huntington Beach CA
Amp in great condition. Almost all original. Electrolytics were replaced and tubes were replaced with NOS tubes. 5 watts. Jensen Alnico speaker in good condition - One tiny pinhole, but I wouldn't recone it. Still sounds great, no buzz. Unique features are a neon pilot light, 20 Volt heaters and an input transformer. Tremolo is from heaven, best sounding I've heard. Makes for great recording amp or good for living room jams. Classic looks and vintage tone. Asking $225. Thanks for looking.

1955 Magnatone Deluxe Melodier 109 Tube Amp (Vancouver-Salmon Creek - PORTLAND AREA)

Reply to: scq6w-2946356441@sale.craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]
The Deluxe 109 was made by Magna Electronics Co. Inglewood, California. It has 1 microphone input and 2 instrument inputs. A 12AX7 is used for preamping these inputs. There is a seperate volume control for the microphone input and a master volume for all the inputs. A tone control adjusts the tone for all inputs. It's a push pull amp, (Magna Electronics' new Advanced Push-Pull Circuit) but the 12ax7 does not drive the phase inversion, the phase inverter comes off of the screen grid of the 6V6 power tube. This was uncommon back then, yet it allows the 12ax7 to provide the two gain stages needed for the preamp and splits the signal for the push pull output, does a nice job and saves another pre amp tube being used during the manufacturing process. HVdc rectification is handled by a 5Y3 rectifier. Output transformer has the #012 and power supply transformer has the #P50. A pilot lamp, fuse holder and on/off switch finish the control panel. It has two # 75L, 8-inch speakers (EIA code:395-502) indicating the 2nd week of 1955.
The cabinet is closed-back, has a 15 degree slanted speaker baffle and is covered in black Mother-of-Toiletseat. Dimensions: 12-1/4" High - 15-5/8" Wide - Top, 8-1/4" Deep - Bottom, 9" Deep. Weight: 18 lbs. Original list price in 1957 was $109.95
This amp has not had the 2 prong cord replaced but this should be done for safety.
You can see this exact amp online at Dub dub dub.vibroworld.com/magnatone/109.html (yes I am selling this very amp)!
$450. O.B.O.

I have a (Highly Collectable/Rare) 1966 Magnatone MP-3 amp I would like to sell to the right person. Amp has been gigged in the past, Probably 7 out of 10 condition, but is fully serviced by the man: Dean Zink. Amp came without the Original Jensen C12PS's. it know has celestion G12V-80's in it at 16 ohms each in parallel for 8 ohms and biased out at 58 watts rms. It has 2 channels with 2 INPUTS per channel and Great Reverb and Awsome Vibrato, Not the copy Tremolo from Fender. Clean is Bright and chimmey with HUGE HEAD ROOM and dirt is like 70's rock, This is the amp you always wanted but never could afford because IT WAS MORE MONEY THAN THE TWIN at that time......Great amp in tone, and in performance, Made in America by: Americans

1966 Magnatone M15 Custom Tube Amp - $895 (Dunnellon) FLORIDA Ocala Area

Reply to: qncvh-2952262184@sale.craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]
I have this 1966 Magnatone M15 tube amp for sale or trade. It is a killer amp. It has 2 separate input channels, (each with high or low gain), plus a Stereo input. 3 12AX7/7025 preamp tubes for the treble, bass, loudness and contour controls. This amp uses 3 of the 12DW7/7247 split mu tubes. The hi mu sides are used for phase inversion and a low freg. oscillator. The medium mu sides are used in the 1st vibrato shift and the 2 shift recoveries. A 12AU7 drives the 2nd vibrato shift. Another 12AU7 to amplify the low freq. oscillator. The Reverb input comes from the secondary side of one output transformer# T2 20-0155. Another 12AX7/7025 tube recovers the reverb. This model M15-A also has an "Echo" control that I am told sounds like it gates the reverb using an LDR circuit on the reverb output. This M15A reverb circuit is different from the M-15 and the "Dual Imperial" models, which use a tube driven reverb circuits. The M15 has a tube recovery, and the "Dual Imperial" uses a transistor returns. Four 7189A power tubes into stereo output transformers, into 2 12", 16ohm, Jensen model C12P speakers. Needs some of the pots cleaned up but it works and sounds great. asking $895.00 and also open too trades. If interested drop me a line or call me 352-***-**** Thanks!
