Description
A vintage 1959 Gretsch 6151 5-watt tube combo amp. In the sea of vintage single-ended 5-watt practice combos, this amp really stands out. It's larger cabinet makes for a warm, resonant tone that just sounds bigger than other amps in this class--including the much-lauded Tweed Champ. Aside from an new set of power supply filter caps, the amp is all original. It has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds fantastic.
