*1967 Silvertone 1482*
If your thinking or looking for one of these this is probably the one to get.
These are often beaten to death, need fully serviced and falling apart.
This one suffers from none of that.
This amp is fully serviced including new caps, high end tubes (some NOS), 3 prong power cable, new handle, cleaned pots, cleaned switch, cleaned inputs, cleaned inside and out. All other components checked over to confirm perfect working order and also retains the original speaker in perfect working order and ready to rock.
If you know this amp then you know it is a Rock & Roll Fire Breather with some of the best, tube driven, swampy tremolo ever put in an amp!
This one is in Fantastic condition for a 50 year old amp and is plug and play ready for your home, studio, band or rehearsals.
It has a beautiful warm tone that goes from Fender-ish Deluxe cleans to ROARING natural tube distortion.
These old Silvertones truly have some of the best tube driven tremolo ever and sound better than even a Fender's tremolo in my opinion.
You can play this at bedroom/apartment levels with no problem and it handles basically any pedal you want to throw at it very well.
But, the real magic with these things is when you turn them up and get the natural tube distortion.
I personally like to jump the channels to get more gain and tone control and crank it to breakup then clean it up with my guitar volume.
It's a super, dynamic amp and can go from clean to mean by simply digging in or turning your guitar volume up a bit.
It will RIP! Sounds INCREDIBLE!
This is one of my personal 1482's and I take care of all my gear and is fully functional, serviced and should be good to go for another 50 years.
I hate to let it go but I simply have to many amps and not enough room and would love for it to go to someone who can love and enjoy it and get tons of inspiration out of it.
It sounds great with any pickups you may have.
I've personally played it with humbuckers, single coils, P90's, gold foils, mini-buckers and Filtertrons and it sounded SUPERB with all of them.
Though this amp is in excellent shape and works flawlessly please keep in mind it is 50 years old and has been cared for but played and has some minor cosmetic issues here and there as you would expect for a 50 year old amp and nothing falling apart or causing any structural or electrical issues.
What you see is exactly what you get!
I have taken high quality photos so be sure to zoom in and inspect them for exact condition and details.
I would NEVER sell something I wouldn't be happy getting myself and I NEVER sell junk.
I don't skimp on packing and shipping and it often take me an hour or so to prepare and pack an amp as I care about them making it to you safely.
I will pack it better than a newborn baby and will pull the tubes and label them to show where to reinstall them after receiving the amp.
You can always message me if you need any guidance or help and I'll be glad to chit chat or help you in any way with this.
I will pay extra and purchase Reverb Safe shipping and require signature for delivery to give you and I some peace of mind should anything happen in transit.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this and feel free to message me with any questions or concerns.
Thanks again,
David
