Up for sale is a vintage mid 60's Gibson solid state Sabre Reverb 1 amplifier, in great condition. This amp was produced by Chicago Musical Instruments (CMI) as specifically an amp for vintage combo organs, but it sounds excellent as a guitar amp (acoustic or electric), or as a small PA. Has a very warm and clean vintage tone and the reverb unit is the same one used on fender amps back in the day, such as the fender twin. Tom Petty used to use one (pic included).

The Gibson Sabre Reverb 1 has a very unique feature, which is the 6-pin socket that allows a direct-connection (including power) to portable organs. The Model-10 and Model-20 Leslie portable speakers also plug right in. It also has plug-in compatibility with the Farfisa Compact Duo organ and Farfisa Transicord accordion. This is a 50 watt amp with a 15" speaker and a 14" side mounted horn. This amp is all original in good working condition but it could use the pots cleaned.
