Up for sale, a 1966 Fender Dual Showman in excellent condition and in perfect working order. Produced very early in’66 where the Dual Showman still simply said “Showman” on the faceplate, this Dual Showman boasts a pair of flawless and original JBL D140F 15 speakers with original cones as well as two matched pairs of RCA and General Electric-branded 6L6GC power tubes. This amp was the absolute top of the line Fender amp in its day, and still an ideal choice for guitar, bass, or amplifying your favorite vintage electric piano or combo organ. For pristine, sparkling Fender Blackface clean tone, you can’t get any bigger or badder than the Dual Showman, and the amp delivers 85 pure tube watts. The cleans are clear, focused and warm, with a percussive clarity and cut that pairs perfectly with Fender’s single coil pickups and interacts equally well with a warm pair of humbuckers or P-90s. The low end can be dialed in to perfection, with some sweet low-midrange on tap, and a deep, pulsating tremolo as well. The circuit is clean and very original, with a virtually untouched preamp that retains all of the famed blue molded Ajax tone caps that are a hallmark of the Blackface sound. Even the original compliment of filter caps is still intact and viable. All of the original Schumacher transformers (Fender’s primary transformer supplier in the Blackface era) are intact dating between late’65 and the first weeks of 1966. The CTS pots date to late’65 as well. The Blackface faceplate is in great shape, with all of the original witch hat knobs present. The tube chart is clean and intact inside the head, noting the amp’s AB763 circuit and “PD” date code which translates to April of 1966. Both JBL 15 D140 speakers are original to the amp, and everything inside the cab is 100% straight. Both JBLs have their original “29675″ cone codes, and both ribbed cones are in great shape with original aluminum dust caps. The gray speaker frames and JBL labels are virtually flawless, and all of the original fiberglass baffling is intact inside the cab too. With their heavy duty alnico magnets and 4 voice coils, these speakers perfectly replicate Fender clean tones with little to no speaker distortion. Both the head and large 2×15 speaker cabinet retain their original smooth black tolex and silver sparkle grillcloth, and all of the original hardware is intact too, including the raised Fender logos on both head and cab, chrome tilt-back legs, piggyback clip bars and thumbscrews, nickel corners, chassis straps, and handle caps. Cosmetically, the head and cab show only light wear with and some nicks, scuffs, and dings in the tolex and light surface patina on the hardware, but no serious wear. Given a full checkup by our techs here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar and one of the straightest examples we’ve come across in years, this Dual Showman boasts original JBL D140 speakers, vintage power tubes, and an extremely original circuit with stock transformers. Check out our shop “Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar, ” and please let us know if we can answer any questions! We use double thick boxes, 1″ foam, and industrial 1/2″ bubble wrap to ensure that your amp arrives safely.

Vintage 1961 Magnavox 8103 Dual Tube Amp Stereo Amplifier Project Great. The amp is completely original and is over 50 years old. There is some rust that I cleanded lightly as well. Other than that every thing is sound and all vacuum tubes light. I was able to jumper the power to test the amp. I was able to hear music out of both sides of the low frequency amp. The sound indicates its time for new coupling capacitors and probably most of the other capacitor for top rate sound. This amp will require modification to play directly from a wall outlet. The circuit will need to be checked and caps and resistors replaced as needed. They are great amps after being refurbished. That is why this is being called a project. Magnavox amps are easy to access and refurbish. There is a lot of information on line and Magnavox amps sound great after refurbishment. The amp is really two separate amp sections, a low amp and high amp. The lower-end stereo amp uses four 6V6 power tubes, two per side, in push pull configuration. Each side is 12 to 15 watts into 4 speaker loads. The higher end amp uses two 6V6 power tubes, one per side, in a single-ended amp arrangement. The load is around 3W into 16 Magnavox tweeters. This amp uses 11 vintage tubes. All tubes are branded Magnavox, and are original to the amp. They have not been tested. The item “Vintage 1961 Magnavox 8103 Dual Tube Amp Stereo Amplifier Project Great” is in sale since Monday, September 30, 2019. This item is in the category “Consumer Electronics\Vintage Electronics\Vintage Audio & Video\Vintage Amplifiers & Tube Amps”. The seller is “8ten1944″ and is located in Cass City, Michigan.
