It is a used tube guitar amp offered by Montgomery Ward under the Airline moniker and presumably made by Danelectro back in the 1960's. It is tested and works. Looks to be about a 15 watt power section. Nice breakup and natural distortion. It is in pretty good cosmetic condition. Some of the vinyl may need to be re-glued. It is missing a 3" strip panel that goes across the back to cover part of the speaker. It has the original 12" Alnico V speaker in it. Here is one of the reviews I found of this model from an independent source:

Sound Quality      Use with both a fat Strat and a Les Paul, this thing was born to do the blues. That is the only reason I bought it -- it is ugly (and kind of run down), and I do worry about using such old electronics, but once I heard the sound! I don't know who made the speaker, it's unmarked and may not be original (can't tell). I've never heard a stock, no effects unit give a better blues sound, bar none. I had a Peavey Classic 30, but now it's gone, it couldn't hold a candle to this old amp. I think it would be pretty useless for anything else, but if you want a natural blues child, this is it. I really hope it never breaks....

Shipping will be $35 to the continental USA. Email me with any questions.
