I am not going to go into all the sales 'stuff' like this: Note - A Selmer Stadium amplifier was used fairly intensively by the Beatles in their Hamburg days, before they went over to exclusively Vox. It was also The Shadows main amplifier up until about May 1960, when they also changed their allegiance to Vox.) I will just go on to give information concerning this amps History & Condition, because anyone interested it will probably know more about it than me. The amplifier was bought about 50 years ago and was used as part of a shops hire gear, hence the name on the sides. It has been maintained electrically but the cabinet is the worse for wear. The carrying handle has been replaced and is not original and I think the same can be said for the speaker cloth and possibly the back panel. It all works as it should including the trem which needs an on/off foot switch pluggin into the socket in the back-panel. The speaker is working but I,m sure it is time for a re-cone. I could go on but would prefer to answer any questions. Shipping I will remove the valves and pack it exremely well.
