This 1970s Kustom II Lead (Model II L SC) is a piece of American music history, hand-built in Chanute, Kansas, during the golden era of solid-state innovation. Known for its robust "built like a tank" construction, this amp delivers the high-headroom, punchy cleans that made Kustom an industry icon.

Key Features & Performance

  • Dual-Channel Versatility: Features two distinct channels—a dedicated Drive channel for gritty blues and vintage crunch, and a Normal channel for pristine, glass-like clean tones.
  • Classic Onboard Effects: Equipped with a real spring reverb tank for deep, lush ambiance and a classic tremolo circuit that provides everything from a subtle pulse to a deep, rhythmic chop.
  • 60 Watts of Power: This combo pumps out 60 watts of RMS power, making it "county-fair loud" and perfect for both stage and studio work.
  • Premium Speaker Configuration: Usually loaded with a pair of 12" speakers (often CTS or Scorpion models), providing rich low-end and a broad tonal footprint.
  • Dynamic EQ Control: Each channel includes Bass, Middle, and Treble controls, with pull-out Bright switches on the treble knobs to instantly add extra "zing" and clarity to your high end.

Condition & Heritage

Maintained in very good condition, this amp retains its original vintage character and legendary reliability. Unlike modern modeling amps, these 70s Kustoms are preferred by enthusiasts for their authentic, responsive solid-state tone and excellent performance as a pedal platform. It’s a rare chance to own a reliable, high-output classic from the same lineage used by legends like Creedence Clearwater Revival and Johnny Cash.
