Quick notes:

  • Most instruments I sell are consigned but some are my own.
  • Repairs and adjustments have been done, if necessary, and this item is ready to go unless otherwise noted!
  • I usually ship within 2-3 days to allow for me to inspect and adjust instruments if need-be before boxing. If you need faster shipping please get in touch right away!
  • Buyer pays shipping expenses both ways on returns. I include shipping in my listing pricing but returns are not free. Please consider carefully and ask all questions before buying an item.
  • Please read the following text for full details and specs -- it's borrowed from my original blog post on it...

This beaut is a '56 Deluxe that was gone-over by the famous Vermont amp tech, Bill Carruth. It's a demon in the tone department and all the work has been done to make it a reliable, stage-ready friend.


It looks like all of the electrolytic capacitors have been replaced by newer, Jupiter, Sprague, or F&T units which are all good-quality replacements. It's been 3-pronged. Bill also put his customary computer-style fan back there to help keep it cool when cranking on it for whole gigs (it could be easily removed if desired). The speaker is original but the cone was replaced by Orange County Speaker Works. 

As far as condition goes -- the tweed has been abused at all the corners and edges but it still looks excellent and, aside from the caps, quite original. It's definitely not a closet classic and is much more of a player's amp -- ready to be cranked hard and enjoyed.
