Vintage Tube Amp

Not Working , But 100% Complete. Sound Projects R-203 Guitar Tube Amplifier. This is A Really Cool & Vintage 1960s Sound Projects R-203 Guitar Tube Amplifier that’s in great cosmetic condition over all for its age. Its in the cosmetic condition as pictured, so be sure to view them all (see pics). I tried to take really good pics, so you can judge for yourself (see pics). This amp appears all original other than what is mentioned above, but does not work. The original speaker appears to be in great shape with no signs of deterioration. When this amp came in, the power cord was cut off, as well as the wires going to the speaker. We threw a power cord and speaker wires on it to see what we had. You can hear that it turns on, but the tubes don’t heat up and you get nothing out of it. It doesn’t appear anything has been tampered with other than the speaker wires and power cord. We didn’t try anything else to get this going and just left it as you see it. Please look at all pics… What you see is exactly what you are getting.

This is a1960s SOUND ELECTRONICS Corp VINTAGE Bass X-202 Tube AMPLIFIER. Serial #21121 Made in Mineola, NY, USA. I’ve had this underrated amp for almost 25 years. It was in very sorry shape when I got it. The grey Tolex was a mess and the bottom of the case was beat up. I stripped it, filled the holes, and painted it flat ink blue with variegated gold leaf flames for a blues hot rod look to go with my playing blues standards. It would not cost you much to recover it with Tolex if you want the original look. It has the original exterior hardware and speaker cloth but I added a pair of rails to the bottom to keep it off the floor. The Jensen 15 speaker came from CAE in San Mateo, CA as the original was torn. I replaced some resistors, diodes and capacitors. The power cord is probably not original. All the controls appear original: On/Off, Bass, Treble, Volume, Polarity, plus 3 inputs and one external output. And the little blue power indicator works. And it has an internal fuse. I made the schematic of the amp circuitry that I will include. It weighs 42 pounds and is approximately 28x20x11. I read that Sound Amps were made in Mineola Long Island NY in the 1960s by John Dougherty, a former Ampeg employee, who later went on to run Marlboro amps, made by MICA (Musical Instrument Corporation of America) in Syosett. The Sound amps were made really well & used similar circuits to Ampeg & Oliver units. Dougherty also invented and patented the Quadra-Sound Blender, an outboard effect, which combined tremolo, vibrato and reverb, to produce a couple of unique surf-like effects.
