You are bidding on a
1964 Fender Showman Piggy Back Guitar AmplifierIt's pretty rare to see a black face pre CBS Showman with a black tolex tone ring cabinet.
I have seen a lot more blonde ones over the years. Looks to be mostly original except for the knobs and back plate screws, see pictures for details.
Over all it's a very clean amp, lots of headroom and very quiet.
A rare combination of a collectors grade amp with reliable playability. All original transformers with matching date codes.
Filter caps and electrolytic caps on main board are original and in perfect working condition.
Amp must have been played regularly over the years, because it runs with almost no noise floor even at high volumes.
This is almost unheard of when the electrolytic caps are original.
We run the amp every few weeks to keep the caps fresh. Includes original 1X15 tone ring cabinet, with original JBL D130F speaker in perfect condition. High quality modern replacement foot switch included. Tilt back legs are included in sale, but buyer will have to install them on the cabinet. Mounting hardware will have to be purchased.
Tilt back legs and tubes will be shipped in small box packed with the amplifier head.
Power tubes are Electro Harmonix and have very low hours on them. A solid deal on a great amp!Shipping is $170.00.
Thank you for looking!Note to our customers:
- We offer returns within 14 days, if there is a reasonable issue with your item.- We cannot guarantee the continued function of vintage electronic equipment over the course of your ownership, or the reliability of internal electronic components. - For vintageNOS tubes, we cannot gaurantee test results, test numbers, or sound quality in your equipment. This is due to the varied nature of tube testing and owner equipment. We test our tubes to make sure they are within their operating specifications, and are free of shorts, leakage, and are subjected to a short audio test in an amplifier with cascading gain stages. This will usually reveal micro-phonic tubes. Our test procedures are more stringent then 90% of tube retailers online or on eBay. We have a good track record of providing quality tubes so please know what you are buying and read your descriptions before purchasing an item.
- Please take into account that you are buying a vintage amplifier or tube(s). We fully check, maintain, and restore our amps when needed, and we do our best within our ability to ensure you have a quality product. That said, we cannot be responsible for every future issue that may or may not arise after your purchase, such as the failure of internal components due to age. - We will do whatever we can to help you resolve an issue, and if we are responsible for the issue we will resolve it.
