Sears 1971 10XL Tube Combo amp w Tremolo in Portland for $175
These Early 1970's Sears Amps fly way below the radar. These were the last tube amps sold by Sears and they are pretty darn awesome vintage bang for the buck.
This model uses a 7189 Output tube and 12AX7 Preamp which is basically the same as a Vox AC4.
The trick with these 10XL's is to look for the ones with the "square red power indicator light." I know we are really nitpicking now but apparently they alrered the circuit at some point when they also switched the red lens to a round shape and it didn't sound as good (or so I've heard).
Here is a website called Tonegems that tells you all about this model: http://www.tonegems.com/silvertone-1421/
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.
