•••VIDEO DEMO OF THIS EXACT AMPLIFIER•••

Super rare Valco made OAHU 1x8 combo amp in stunning red MOTS pearloid finish.

This was made in very limited special order quantity in the ‘50’s…effectively the same as a Supro Spectator, Supro Comet, OAHU Yellow sunshine, etc however, unlike 99% of these circuits featuring the older octal 6SL7 pre amp tube, this uber Champ killer, sports a 12AX7 offering more gain and and a smoother break up.

This was purchased from the original owner and had not been previously touched until it had been recently professionally and thoughtfully serviced(filter caps, grounded three prong cord, complete check up)… it is much larger sounding for an amp of and gets a lovely fat clean sound, and beautiful grind when push pushed with plenty of top end sculpting if needed courtesy of the very useable tone control range.

PLEASE REFER TO THE INCLUDED ONE SHOT, OFF THE CUFF, ZERO EDIT VIDEO DEMO FOR FURTHER SONIC ILLUSTRATION.

The amp is 100% original save for the changed service parts and the amp handle. Other than that it is exceptionally clean, looks awesome, and sounds even better… Which equals the BEST combination.

Why spend north of $2500 on Tweed Champ when you can get this glorious sounding looker, with a MUCH bigger and fuller sonic profile any champ I’ve ever played… With beautiful cleans and killer grind… Again real deal video as it sounds, no EQ, no reverb, no enhancement…

Don’t hesitate on this super rare opportunity.
