Class:
Description Brand: Gibson MPN: Does Not Apply Exact Year: 1939 Country/Region of Manufacture: United States Model: EH-185 Era: Pre War
For 5$ opening bid!! Get your Charlie Christian chops in order, 'cause this old bird aint messin'round!!Very good condition considering its damn near 80 years old. Original everything and works. Could use a service as it has not been played in about 6 months or so. It's had a cap job since I have owned it. The thing that struck me most about this amp is how loud it gets. So loud that I was actually afraid to turn it past half way thinking that something was bound to give. So I never did. But the fidelity is fantastic, the bottom end is so much heavier than the more famous little brother EH 150. It's a fine piece of functional americana. Will be double boxed with insulation in between. For an extra 35$ I'll ship the head separately, probably not a bad idea. I have shipped dozens of amps before with no issues, I have a good system. http://sclkssl.ssl.hwcdn.net/18/imgpages/1/4/4422021_778628.jpg?version=3http://sclkssl.ssl.hwcdn.net/29/imgpages/1/4/4422021_778629.jpg?version=40http://sclkssl.ssl.hwcdn.net/08/imgpages/1/4/4422021_778630.jpg?version=9http://sclkssl.ssl.hwcdn.net/47/imgpagesthumb/1/4/4422021_778631.jpg?version=98http://sclkssl.ssl.hwcdn.net/27/imgpages/1/4/4422021_778632.jpg?version=10
