Vintage Tube Amp

Fender Blues Junior 15-watt Tube Combo Amp Lacquered Tweed with Jense Italy 1×12. The Fender Blues Junior Lacquered Tweed 15W 1×12 Combo Amp blends retro esthetics with contemporary flexibility. This 15W, all-tube combo amp is housed in a stylish lacquered tweed cabinet and powered by a pair of EL84 Groove Tube output tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes for rich, dynamic tone. Its 12 Jensen C12-N speaker delivers crisp highs, warm lows and natural midrange. Renowned Fender reverb provides ambience, while the FAT boost switch adds midrange punch. The sparkle circuit switch activates an extra high-frequency filter for chimey cleans. With simple but effective controls, this portable amp is ideal for blues, rock, jazz, country and more. Vintage Appeal Meets Modern Playability. The lacquered tweed cabinet, vintage-style brown and gold grille cloth, and chrome control panel give the Blues Junior a retro flair. Its compact size, single 12 speaker, and lightweight build make it easy to transport to gigs or jams. The EL84 and 12AX7 tube combination provides 15 watts of warm, responsive power that works for any style. The FAT boost switch adds midrange girth for extra grit, while the sparkle circuit switch enhances highs for crisp, shimmering tones. Straightforward but versatile controls make dialing in your perfect tone a breeze. The preamp drive knob adjusts the level of tube overdrive, from clean to saturated. The 3-band EQ-with dedicated bass, middle and treble knobs-provides complete tonal control. Adjust the reverb level for subtle ambience or drenched spring reverb. An external speaker output lets you connect an additional cab for more volume. Professional Grade at a Guitar Center Price. Fender quality and components in an affordable, gig-ready package.

EICO HF-81 Stereo Tube Amplifier with All Vintage Tubes, with EL84/6BQ5 in Output. Watch it in operation with music from Pro-Ject turntable on Youtube. All tubes are vintage and all included; some are Mullard etc. I provided some pictures to show the circuitry under the chassis. I plugged it in wall voltage of 120V and the amp worked fine and produced great and balanced music in both channels as shown in the video. Since this amp is very old, it may need services before daily use. At least, the new owner should have some professional to go over it. I did notice the following issues. The fuse holder is bit loose. At times, I had to re-tighten the fuse to power it up. The shaft of TREBLE control pot can be pushed in if you re-install the knobs on it. I inserted a small piece of hard foam behind it (inside the chassis) so it’s fixed, for now. I felt some of the contacts or wirings are not 100% secured. I once pulled out one tube shield and incidentally brushed on something (didn’t know what), causing the left channel silent. That channel recovered by itself a few minutes later. I couldn’t find out the cause. That’s why it’s very good idea to have a professional to service it so you can really enjoy it. Physical condition is really good for the age, much better than many others showed up for sale. The front is beautiful; all knobs are original. Chassis is pretty clean. Meshed cover is good. There may be some screws missing in the bottom plate. Overall, this is a beauty to me. I have other audio equipment, like.
