This amp circuit was originally built by At Mars, then I tweaked it a bit more and put it in the vintage ammo can. I have played this next to amps/circuits by all of the above builders and it totally hangs but with a unique voice. Comes with vintage/tested tubes.

It is a push pull amplifier, that utilizes a 5y3 rectifier tube, two 6v6 power tubes, with 6j5 triode and 6j7 pentode octal preamp tubes. No tubes are included or available. Mod or convert into a guitar amp, or use it for parts, these are awesome transformers for a 5e3 or related amp.

This is an old amplifier from a filmosound projector. Great platform for a custom build, perfect candidate for a guitar amp mod. Please see pictures and ask any questions.

COMES WITH ALL THAT IS SHOWN. HAS COSMETIC WEAR WITH SCRATCHES, SCUFFS, MARKS, SOME TARNISH AND PITTING ON CHROME, DUSTY AND WILL NEED CLEANED UP ETC. THE LENS LOOKS A BIT FOGGY AND WILL NEED CLEANED UP. PLEASE ASK IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS THANK YOU!
