Up for sale, a 1947 Magnatone Troubadour model M-192-5 in exceptional condition and in perfect working order. A very rare first year production model, this 1×12 tube amp is extremely original and has been thoroughly gone over by our techs here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar to ensure optimal playability. With a preamp driven by octal tubes, the amp has a complex, sweet, and harmonically rich tone that sounds very natural and dynamic. The amp lets the voice of your guitar’s pickups shine through and has a distinctly different response with every guitar that’s put in front of it. Single coils can sound jangly and clear, while P-90s and humbuckers can push the circuit into rich overdrive. The circuit retains the original generously-sized. Transformer which dates to the 2nd week of’47, and the original output transformer is intact too, mounted to the speaker frame. The circuit retains the original pots in the true point-to-point wired circuit, with new signal and filter caps as necessary to ensure optimal performance. The speaker is the original alnico magnet Rola with a clean silver frame and date stamp from the 4th week of’47. The speaker has been reconed in the amp’s lifetime, and new leads from the output transformer to the chassis were cleanly soldered to the original leads post-recone. The faceplate is remarkably clean with all of the original graphics as well as the trio of white chicken head knobs. The amp is stocked with a complete compliment of vintage tubes including a 5Y3 rectifier and matched RCA 6V6 power tubes. The cabinet is wrapped in the original lightly textured brown material, not dissimilar from the bindery cloth used on later Magnatone models. The original brown and gold grillcloth is in remarkable shape, and the amp even retains the original metal “MEC-Magna Electronics Co” logo on the amp’s face as well as the stock leather handle. There’s a bit of light scuffing and wear on the edges of the enclosure, yet for a Magnatone that’s practically a prototype, it’s sure to satisfy discerning collectors and studio players alike.
