Completely restored 1949 Gibson GA50 vintage tube amp combo. This amp sounds truly heavenly! All original transformers. Original Jensen 12" and 8" alnico speakers have been reconed by the good guys at the Circuit Shop. Both have late '48 date codes. All out of spec parts have been replaced with highest quality parts. Red Jupiter coupling caps. Sprague Atom, CE and F&T electrolytics. Carbon comp resistors on the few that were actually out of spec. All the pots, but the military bass pot have been opened and thoroughly cleaned. I sanded every ground point between terminals and chassis to make sure they are perfect. Still has the screw on shield for the inputs that most of these are missing. New leather handle. I believe the feet are original. 3 prong power cord. All vintage RCA tubes, two-6J5s, two 5693s, which are the ultimate 6SJ7, two blackplate 6L6GCs and original 5V4G. All test very good on my calibrated Hickok 6000A. The 6L6s are within 2mA in circuit. Amp will be professionally packed up by UPS Store.
