Up for sale, a 1965 Gibson Atlas Medalist tube amplifier in excellent condition and in good working order. This vintage Gibson amp is quite massive in stature and tone with a single 15 speaker and 50 watt output via a pair of 6L6 power tubes. Volume, Treble, and Bass knobs are all the Atlas Medalist needs to create a dynamic range of tones from warm, detailed cleans to very raw and rich overdrive. The crunch sound has some real heft and punch with sizzling top end. This amp has been completely serviced by our techs here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar, with a thorough recap of the circuit, freshly biased Ruby 6L6 power tubes, and a modern three-prong power cable. The original CTS speaker is present in the cab and has also been freshly reconed. The speaker code dates to 1965, as do the original transformers. Cosmetically, the amp retains its original rough dark gray tolex, and most of the original black silkscreen text is present on the brushed aluminum faceplate. The knobs are vintage but not original to the amp, and one of the two back panels on the cabinet is missing, which is not at all a bad thing, as it simply gives the amp a more open, airy sound. All three original handles are present and the stock casters make this a fairly easy amp to move around. This Gibson Atlas Medalist is fully serviced and ready for stage and studio use! 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 assure that your amp arrives safely.
