Vintage 1950 Alamo Model #4 amplifier - Super Rare Example

Vintage 1950 Alamo Model #4 amplifier In Very Good condition

• Wear and scratches due to its age
• Fully rebuilt by former Shure electrical engineer
• Documentation and old parts included as seen in photos
• Extra set of good tubes included

This 1950 Alamo Model 4 "Jet" is a rare piece of American mid-century amplifier history, originally hand-wired in San Antonio, Texas and then again in Wisconsin! Known for its simple, high-quality tube circuit, this "poor man’s tweed" offers an incredible alternative to early Fender Champ or Princeton designs at a fraction of the collector price.

Why?:

• Birch Cabinet: Housed in a distinct birch plywood cabinet with the iconic "A" cutout on the front.
• Original Components: Found with its original Jensen or Alamo-branded speaker for that mid-focused, vintage character.
• Portability: Surprisingly lightweight and compact, making it an ideal "grab-and-go" amp for low-volume sessions.

Vintage Alamo amps are increasingly sought after by collectors and players alike for their unique aesthetics and boutique-quality tone. Whether you're looking for a "secret weapon" recording amp or a museum-worthy conversation piece, the Model 4 Jet delivers authentic 1950s Americana in every note.
