Vintage 1960 Sears Silvertone 1483 Bass Amplifier. I havent tested the unit(lack of fuse, guitar, and general lack of knowledge), a friend of mine did put a fuse into it and said that some of the tubes did light up, but no further testing was done. All the knobs and switches feel operable. There is some wear and discoloration to the exterior material. There is also wear and discoloration to the silver colored face of the amp. The cords coming from the speaker had been extended with multiple pieces of different wires, which I removed and re-crimped back to the original connectors. Like I said, you're buying untested as is, If possible I will try and have some test the amp/speaker that's a little more knowledgeable than I am, and update the listing as such.I've only checked on shipping to the lower 48 states. If you are outside the lower 48 please contact me so I can update shipping costs
