Description
A vintage 1951 Gretsch Electromatic in exceptional condition. Very few of these early Gretsch amps were made, and they are quite rare. Aside from the replacement handle, this one is 100% original.
Like many amps from this era it has relatively low output volume and stays quite clean. However, a very nice blues-y crunch tone can be obtained by plugging into the #3 mic input and diming the controls. This hip little amp will be perfect for late-night practice sessions. It has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds great.
