1940s Electromuse A46 Vintage 1x12 Tube Guitar Amplifier Valco Supro 6V6 Deluxe

Up for sale, a  1940s Electromuse model A46 tube amplifier in excellent condition and in perfect working order.  Manufactured in Chicago by the famed Valco company (of Supro, National and Gretsch amp fame), this amp has a sweetness and tonal response similar to both your favorite Supro models and not coincidentally, also a TV front Fender Tweed Deluxe, as the amp has a nearly identical tube compliment to the latter.  The tone is rich and defined, with two channels individual Volume controls and a universal Tone and "Quality" control which acts as a presence knob for both channels.  Each input has a subtly different tonal character, but all have a clear, dynamic clean tone that overdrives nicely when you dime out each channel.  

This amp has just been completely serviced by our techs here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, with a brand new Sprague multi-filter can cap, new bypass caps and a modern three-prong power cable.  The amp has a nice, low noise floor acceptable for recording situations and the few original parts which necessitated replacement are included, along with the stock cable.  The amp retains its original, complete tube set with a duet of RCA 6V6 power tubes, 5Y3 rectifier and octal 6SL7 and 6SN7 preamp tubes.  The stock alnico 12" speaker sounds great and can easily handle wattages more than twice the 12-15 tube watts put out by this Electromuse.

The amp is very complete, right down to the original back panels, stock RCA/Viz skirted knobs and giant, red pilot light.  The cabinet retains its original smooth brown covering with reddish, faded oxblood grillcloth and carved, wooden handle.  The cabinet is surprisingly clean considering its age, with light expected scuffs and wear around a few of the corners, but overall a very well-kept example of a rare and early Valco amp!

Don't miss out on this freshly serviced and incredible sounding vintage "Electromuse" 1x12 tube amp by Valco!
