MADE IN THE USA!

Up for sale is my road-worthy 2017 Old Flame by Allen Amplification. This amp is a BEAST, has amazing tone and is retired from the Allen Amps brand. Based on the legendary Super Reverb, but in a much more portable 2x10; this makes it comparable to a Vibrolux in terms of footprint.

The Old Flame is a boutique, hand-wired guitar combo featuring two Ragin Cajun speakers (this was custom). It is Hand-wired point-to-point with tinned solid-core PVC wiring, G-10 glass epoxy circuit board with brass eyelets. Carbon film resistors, Mallory M150 and CDM silver mica tone capacitors, Switchcraft jacks, Carling switches, and U.S. made molded type sockets. 

Also custom are the cream knobs, blue Tolex, speaker grill and blue power light on this stunning amp. 

It does have some road scratches (see photos) but it does not effect the sound or playability, just small cosmetic blemishes. 

Raw knob is a bit scratchy but works; this is an easy fix, especially being that it's handwired.

Also includes a footswitch (requires a 1/4in cable) which can toggle the Raw control on or off.

Note that this is a kit amp, as it lacks David Allen's signature.
