Oahu 12 watt Tube combo in Atlanta area for $200

These old Oahu lap steel amps sound great - don't expect a screaminf Marshall stack and you won't be disappointed.  Vintage vibe and TONE here.  This one has had a cap job which is really 99% of the work.

Up for sale is a cool players tube amp with2 6V6s and about 10-12 watts of killer old tone. This just had a complete recap and service and is ready to go. It sounds great and is nice and quiet. The cab is in fairly bad shape. The tolex is peeling of and just feels somewhat rickety. It isnt structurally falling apart, but does have some looseness in some places. It is likely an easy fix for someone handier than me. The physical condition is why I am listing it for half of what I see these go for.

Again it sounds great and has what appears to be the original 10" speaker. I'd like to sell it locally here in the metro Atlanta area just because I feel like the tolex may suffer if it is shipped. If you just HAVE to have it hit me up and we'll talk.

Enjoy..

Gibson Les Paul Special in Victoria TX for $350

This looks like a late 90's or early 2000's Gibson Les Paul Special.  The picture is fuzzy but it's probably the lightly finished Mahogany version they sold through MF for $600 back in the day.  That bridge pickup has been replaced and if you are lucky it is either a Gibson 500T Zebra or a Duncan JB - either are excellent in the bridge.

This was posted about a half hour ago.

Leilani MOTS Lap Steel and Amp in Spokane WA - Maybe a Deal?

The seller isn't listing a price on this pair but if you could get them both for $300 total that would be a nice deal.  This Leilani Brand ios most likely a Dickerson Product - they were the company that became Magnatone years later.  I do think the Dickerson Bros.  made theier amps and lap steels in Los Angeles circa 1950.  That "Gourley" name and address may have been a distributor or even a music shop at the time.

Ampeg ReverbRocket 2 in Portland area for $300

This one needs work on the reverb but the Ampeg Reverb is a fairly simple circuit - it is speaker driven so it runs off the output tranny instead of half the preamp tube - but of course it still may not be an easy fix.

This is a really cool old tube guitar amp at a great price. I have it priced so low because it's not in perfect condition. The reverb does not function. This could be an easy fix, but I haven't investigated why it doesn't work. Aside from that, this is an amazing amp. It has a great clean tone which breaks up nicely to a very crunchy distortion. It sounds jazzy at low volumes and more lo/fi/garage rock at higher volumes. It also has a unique sounding tremolo. I need to sell this quick so I'm letting it go for $300/obo. I think this amp could be left as it is or, with an extra investment, it could be brought back to its original condition. Call me at (503)200-7268 if you have questions or would like to try it out. The picture is not of my amp, it's just a stock picture I found online. If you need to see pictures of the specific amp, just let me know.

Conrad 1960's MIJ Semi Hollow - Closet Classic in Detroit area for $265

Here is a Conrad - same as a Univox, Aria or Ventura from the same era.  Early Matsumoku factory guitar.   I wouldn't expect too much from the pickups - but you never know.  Sometimes these are nice bitey P90 type single coils - sometimes not.

1968 Fender Vibro-Sonic amp in Sacramento for $700

This is considered to be THE Pedal Steel Guitar amp - just check out that JBL-D130!   Louder than a rainy Sunday at Chuck-e-Cheese and more headroom than you will ever be able to use. 

Doesn't have the drip edge since he replaced the grill butsure does look nice and clean. Oh and SKip Simmons is known to be a great amp tech so you can be sure it is in excellent shape.

I wouldn't plan on the seller being able to ship this amp anywhere - probably just for local folks.

Vintage1968 Vibro-Sonic Reverb Amp. Dating is based on Fender.com method of dating the engraving on the power transformer, (transformer code EIA 606-740). This amp is really LOUD and CLEAN! It uses the same exact circuit as the Twin Reverb. Uses four (4) 6L6 power tubes but is rated hotter than the Twin at 135 Watts RMS! Amp has the original JBL D-130 15" speaker. Grille was recently replaced so you won't see the metal edge that came on the grilles of amps from this era. This amp was just given a clean bill of health by amp doctor Skip Simmons. On new casters. Also has new Fender cover. Wonderful full tone- specially voiced for steel guitar players, but plenty of highs for screamin' lead players too. This amp may be vintage, but it needs to be working in a band. Don't spend $1500 for a re-issue '65 Twin, check this amp out. It's more amp and a much better value. And did I mention that it is LOUD!

Location: Sacramento


This would make a great Surf amp!
