Description

A vintage Silvertone 1481 tube combo amp in player-grade condition. Simple and straight forward, the 1481 offers a great tube overdrive tone with little fuss. This one is a little rough around the edges cosmetically, but features all original circuitry and a great 60s-era replacement speaker. Great for home practice or low-volume recording. It has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds great.
