First off, this amp is amazing, it has been serviced. I had the caps and tremolo looked at, repaired, and 3 prong cord installed. Unfortunately, the reverb is not really working. The reverb signal is very faint. I have tried different tanks but no such luck. The tremolo is 100% and trippy as hell. It goes from vintage smooth to hard square-rhythmic chopping. WARNINGDaisy chain this amp and it WILL melt faces! The alnico CTS speaker looks original, or at least within the decade. Either way, like I said great sounding amp. A classic all tube vintage monster at a great price. Point to point, easy to access and repair, mod, whatever. Weighs around 35 pounds. The leather handle is a replacement. Thanks for looking, have a great day. Gemini I Model G-12 22-Watt 1×12 Guitar Combo.

This 1966 Ampeg Gemini I is in very original condition except for the replaced speaker. I’ve owned it for about 15 years and have played it just enough to keep the caps alive. It doesn’t pop or crackle but a cap job / servicing is certainly in order. These amps are not Fender knock-offs, they have their own sound. This one gets very loud for an amp rated at 22-watts. Lots of cool features: Ampegs are known for awesome reverb — and this one definitely has that. By the time you get to 5, you’re underwater. Also, you get 2 different types of tremolo. Very’60′s sci-fi. That feature takes 5-10 sec to come on. When it does, you’ll know it! This is like the Bright switch on a Fender amp. This amp does clean sounds beautifully, takes pedals very well, and — one more thing — you can jumper the channels together. This amp will break up but not until it has gotten good and loud! Original speaker was AWOL when I got it. I’ve tried a few different replacements in it over the years. This Eminence Legend is a nice match, so it has remained. Original parts include Ampeg-branded 7591 power tubes. Ampeg circuit designs run power tubes gently, unlike Fender, so it’s not too surprising to see the originals still hanging in there.

Up for sale, a 1966 Ampeg Gemini G-12 in exceptional condition and in perfect working order. Remarkably clean and original with a complete vintage tube set and stock two-button Reverb/Tremolo footswitch, the Gemini G-12 is a two-channel affair with a warm and detailed range of tones. The cleans are robust, with great headroom and sparkling, snappy sounds that were designed with the Jazz player of the day in mind and tweaked for maximum fidelity. At full volume, the amp does push into smooth tube overdrive with some sizzle and roar, and the onboard effects are particularly noteworthy. As the company that pioneered onboard Reverb in their combo amps, it’s no surprise that this Ampeg’s iteration of this effect is lush and full with plenty of splash and great decay. Not to be outdone, the tremolo has a thick, choppy quality, and both effects are easily accessed via the included original footswitch. The circuit is virtually untouched, with original transformers that date to’66 and CTS pots which also date to the 15th week of the same year. Not a solder joint is out of place and the original green Cornel Dubilier caps are all present in the preamp. The speaker is the original Jensen C12Q with a clean blue frame, original foil label on the magnet bell, and date code from the 15th week of’66. The tube chart is also intact inside the cabinet. In terms of the tube compliment, the amp is outfitted with the original Sylvania-made and Ampeg-branded 6V6s along with ostensibly the entire original preamp tube compliment. Cosmetically, this amp is a real stunner with a faceplace so polished and clean that it made it difficult to capture the details of the original white silkscreened graphics which are completely intact along with the original set of knobs. The blue diamond checker covering is also exceptionally well kept and paired with the original silver sparkle grillcloth. Even the original leather handle is still in one piece!
