Vintage Tube Amp

Has original GE 6550 power tubes that test strong and sound amazing! Both reverb and tremolo work! Tremolo is pretty faint though in my opinion. Just had amplifier cleaned and serviced.

This is a wonderful example of an early American made Sunn Solarus Tube amp head. These amps were used by Jimi Hendrix, Leslie West and many others. This one is in fine shape, a real survivor! It looks to be original w/o any major modifications. Someone along the way has replaced one of the transformers and added an extra long three pronged A/C cord. (Very handy) Has the original spring reverb tank that works and sounds great. The mid boost switch appears not to work. There are four inputs (two Bright and two Normal) Has Volume, Treble, Bass, Contour… Rate & Depth (for tremolo) & Reverb knobs that work flawlessly and are not scratchy when adjusted. Has On/Off, Stand By & Polarity Switches. Works well with pedals! Has two speaker inputs. One 16ohms and one 8ohms. Has an input for tremolo & reverb on/off pedal, (pedal not included) The tolex is in very good shape. No rips or tears and the handle is safe and secure. It uses two EL34s for power tubes and is rated at 40 watts. As you can see in the pictures, the chassis has been dated September 8 1969 in red marker. The same date appears on a round sticker on the side of the chassis The Sunn Musical Equipment Company’s history is about as “American Dream” as it gets. After a Portland-based band (The Kingsmen) had a little hit song called “Louie, Louie” in 1963 and found their amplifiers couldn’t fill larger halls, they enlisted the help of a family member to build them louder amps and thus Sunn was born. Don’t miss this chance to own a piece of American musical history! Thank you for your consideration.
