Audio Guild Corporation (Magnatone) Vintage Tube Amp Amplifier, 1970 Imperial
Audio Guild Corp (Magnatone) Vintage Tube Amp Amplifier, 1970 Imperial. For most of the years since it has been idle at my parents home. Obviously, the desired guitar career didnt pan out. The condition is used and operational. I can provide additional pictures as needed. The black vinyl covering has been worn off or curled in some areas, mostly the corners. There is surface rust on some parts including the jacks and the handle brackets. The electrical power cord appears to be original and is twisted and melted in some areas. I assume the melting was due to contact with the hot tubes before I owned it. The interior circuitry portion of the amp has not been disassembled for inspection. The Imperial model nameplate is missing. The amp has a clean Dick Dale surfer sound when vibrato and reverb are used. Technical: Online sources suggest the amp is an Audio Guild Corp Imperial Model. Online sources suggest the amp is a 1970 production model. Utah 12 Speaker Codes: V12PXC2 328045 Power Transformer Codes: 1007 682 041 Output Transformer Codes: 1006 682 045 Serial Number: 4388.
