Vintage Tube Amp

Up for sale, a 1964 Silvertone model 1485 piggyback tube amplifier in exceptional, collector-grade condition and in perfect working order. Produced in the first full year the 1485 model was available, this amp is a stunning example both visually and tonally, boasting the complete original Silvertone branded tube set (with a quad of matched RCA-made gray plate 6L6s no less), original dolly, and six minty Jensen C10Q speakers. The 1485 as advertised by Silvertone pushes a whopping 120 watts, but stripping away the marketing, this amp functions closer to 100 watts via the quad of matched original RCA-made 6L6 power tubes. Extremely powerful and articulate, these amps have much more headroom, punch, and top end response than the smaller 1484, and can produce both bold cleans and roaring overdrive. The smooth articulate crunch of this model has found favor with players across the spectrum, and it responds very well to pedals too. Both channels feature a pair of inputs (high and low) and both channels share the built-in Reverb and Tremolo effects. While the Tremolo has a nice strong pulse that gets quite thick and deep, the Reverb is infamous in its own right for its thin, trashy sound that’s perfect for lo-fi and surf tunes, with a unique gain structure and chimey top end character. The circuit is extremely original, with only a couple smaller caps and a modern three-prong power cord installed to ensure optimal functionality The stock transformers are present, and the original CTS pots date back to the 36th week of’64. The speakers are an incredibly clean sextet of original Jensen C10Q 10 drivers, with minty black frames, original cones, 1964 date codes, and an original, untouched wiring harness. All of the original barrel knobs are intact on the polished aluminum faceplate, which also retains all of the original black silkscreen text. Cosmetically, this Danelectro-made amp is stunning. The original charcoal covering shows sparingly little wear on either the head or cabinet, and the original grillcloth has plenty of sparkle in the gold thread. The head secures into the back of the cabinet with the original swiveling nylon tabs, and even the original dolly is included, screwing into the bottom of the cab with stock screws and retaining a small paper label informing the owner to turn the screws “with a screwdriver or large coin” to attach the dolly. Easily one of the nicest 1485s to surface in years, this amp is a lovely vintage example that’s been given a clean bill of heath from our tech shop and comes complete with the full, original Silvertone-branded tube set.

Up for sale, a 1950 Silvertone 1342 vintage tube guitar amp in excellent condition and in perfect working order. This rare all-tube gem is from the first year of a short production run, complete with the original Rola 12 speaker. The original Silvertone catalog description heralds the 1342 as “low, wide and handsome, ” and the two-tone green and beige faux leather covering is indeed the amp’s standout cosmetic feature, accented by the original pressboard back panel and a clean silkscreened faceplate with chicken head knobs. The amp sounds great with a drive box in front of it to goose the 6V6s into a bit more compression and sparkle, and the open-back cabinet design lends the amp a smooth, airy quality. The circuit is very original, with stock transformers including a particularly overbuilt and massive power transformer. The connection between the speaker and chassis has been upgraded with more heavy-duty speaker wire, and a three-prong power cable has also been installed. The original Rola speaker dates to’50 and the speaker cone appears original, still working well without any flab. The two-tone deep green and beige covering (noted as imitation leather in the original catalog) shows some light wear on the edges of the trapezoidal speaker cab, but as the photos can attest, this Silvertone is an uncommonly well-kept example with a particularly clean faceplate and even the stock leather handle.
