Details

Up for sale is a late 60’s - early 70’s Sears tube guitar amp, supposedly 40 watts, but I have not tested it to verify. Beautiful sounding reverb and tremolo, in good shape for an amp this old. Does not include foot switch. The tubes are: two 7189’s, three 12 AX7’s, and one 6X4. The original driver was replaced with a Fender 12" guitar driver. One caveat: Channel 1 is about half as loud as Channel 2. Otherwise, nice sounding old, all tube guitar amp. Model # is 1422 and Chassis # is 185 12070. If you want anything else photographed, I will try my best with my tablet camera. As always, no warranties are expressed or implied, sold as is. Local sale only in the Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland area, willing to drive halfway for delivery. $200, cash preferred.

I’ve owned it for about 20 years. Yes, it has the original two prong plug. It was serviced about 10 years ago for scratchy pots and intermittent distortion. Frankly, I didn’t keep the paperwork from the repair, so I don’t remember what was done to it. As I said, Channel 1 is about half as loud as Channel 2.
