Up for sale is an amazing rare gem of an amp by Gibson….. Gibson is revered (and documented) as one of the top two guitar manufacturers in the world, but they are highly underrated as amp makers. This exquisite piece of work is remarkably it’s own animal….. Not really attributable in sound to any of the “big 3″ amp makers: Marshall, Fender or Vox. This amp has a voice all its own, and is very decidedly, well…. The clean is a nice “jazzy clean, ” which I believe is the genre for which this amp was originally made. And the tube complement along with the speakers and the ENORMOUS transformer really gives this amp a nice, warm and huge sound! There is no master volume on this amp, so to get any gain and/or drive, you have to keep turning this 18 watter up until you get the dirt to your taste. If I was to describe the amp’s overdrive in “big 3″ terms, I would describe it as a jangly vox meets a not so dirty Fender tweed amp. The amp has been serviced where needed….. The excellent sounding onboard tremolo (which is turned on and off with the included 1-button footswitch) has had its capacitors replaced with 2 brand new ones. I also had the original two prong power cord replaced with a safer and better condition brand new 3-prong power cord…. A nice ample, long one! Both of these enhancements were performed by Al Forbes, one of the best amp techs in the greater Charlotte area, at Alpha Sound and Light. Guitar center also replaced the tubes several months ago.
