This has been gone over by a tech with the capacitors and resistors replaced and any weak tubes. Speaker is original with numbers of 220034 10J11 V1373. It is working and loud on input #2. It has no hum at all until you plug a guitar cable into it and then it has a low hum/buzz on input #2. Hum does get louder as the volume is turned up but I can’t hear it when the guitar is playing. You can see the parts that were replaced in the bags I show and the old parts are included. Also a new feed power wire has been put on both the amp and pedal. The 1/8 rca plug on the pedal plugs in very tight. Cosmetically some of the covering needs glued back down and there are some stains and missing covering. Gibson logo on the grill side is partially missing and there is some wear to the cloth grill. Last to note is that the cover for the tubed section is not original and you need to drill the 4 holes to mount it yourself. It is the correct size and fit and a tweed material but does not quite match the rest of the amp. Base is 20″ wide x 8 3/4″ deep. Height is 17 1/4 with the carrying handle folded down. Age is late 1950′s to early 1960′s. Lettering on the metal plate is pretty good. I’m not sure if the nobs are original or not–they could be replacements but certainly close to original if they are. I will be listing several of these with this one being the best looking. I’m rather disappointed that input 1 did not work as when I bought it I was told it was fully working—and it is other than that input. Tubes are 12AX7, pair telefunken ECL82, 5Y3GT. I believe the speaker code dates this one to 1960. The items I sell Might or Might not be from a smoke free home.
