Vintage 6BQ5 12AX7 Guitar Tube Amplifier Head & Webcor Speaker Home Brew Amp
Saturday, March 23rd, 2019All the tubes are included…. 1 12AX7 1 12AU7 (I substituted a 5814). The speaker case and grill cover are in really nice condition. The tolex has no rips or tears and only has very minor age related wear. The handles are also in great shape and work perfectly. The case unlatches and detaches from each other and work as they should and are in very good condition. The Amplifier features an On/Off Toggle Power Switch, a single 6BQ5, a 12ax7 and 12au7 tubes, A Volume and Tone control, a fuse holder, 1/4″ input plug for guitar and a 1/4″ speaker output plug that the speaker plugs into. All of the knobs work and turn freely as they should and the power light comes on. The fuse is still good too but the tubes do not light up and it does not produce any sound. So this amp is a great candidate for a rebuild and need some tubes or work to bring it back to its full potential. The chassis is in good cosmetic condition for its age (please see photos). It measures approximately 13 3/4″ x 9 1/4″ x 9 1/4 including the handle and weighs about 18 lbs. For parts or restoration. I bring tube amplifiers up to power slowly on a variac with a full load to avoid damage and properly reform the capacitors and although I test them to the best of my ability, I’m not an expert by any means! I may not be able to test all functions, some may have been repaired or worked on by others and some functions may or may not work as there may be damaged components that we are unable to determine that need additional repairs. Some items may just be plugged in and powered on without further testing so don’t assume the item works because it powers on. When purchasing 50+ year old items you should expect that some work may need done to bring them back up to their full potential… Our items decades ago.
