A secret weapon for Jazz guitarists, famously used by the great Joe Pass in the 1975 “Duets of Hannover” concert with Ella Fitzgerald!
For sale is a truly rare bird; an early-mid 1970’s Polytone 102 1x12 Jazz guitar combo amp. Favored by the legendary Joe Pass, these are one of the greatest rivals to the early Roland Jazz Chorus amps, featuring a beautiful clean tone facilitated by a simple, yet versatile two-band preamp with switchable high-pass, band-pass, and low-pass filter on both channels. The amp also features a beautiful sounding Vibrato and Spring Reverb on the FX channel, and a unique switchable Room EQ mode on the back which helps with the issues of too much bass response and overly saturated reverb in a live room scenario.
Overall the amp is in great shape for it’s and truly a gem in the world of great Jazz guitar tone. Don’t miss out on this beautiful looking & sounding piece of Polytone history!
This amp has been prepackaged to ensure quick shipping, package dimensions are approximately 25x21x15 inches and weighs about 50 lbs.
