I have more amps than I need, so I am selling:
#1 Wards Airline 8514 combo Made about 1959 by Danelectro Two 6V6 power and two 12AX7 preamp tubes (one replaced by 12AT7), about 10 watts Two original Rola 8 in 4 ohm speakers Two channels, each with a low and high gain input Vibrato controled by foot switch (don't have switch) Single tone control for each channel Fully serviced by Al Forbes at Alpha sound including new power supply filter caps and grounded line cord Wonderful and unique mid-century modern styling Excellent plus (honest) cosmetic condition- it looks like it was pulled out of a time capsule. Tweedy and fat harp tone Maximum volume is similar to a Premier Twin 8 or Princeton
This amp ready to use- all the servicing and tweaking has been done. Price- $250 + shipping
#2 Traynor YSM-4 Studio Mate combo Made about 1971 By Traynor/Yorkville Two EL84 power and five 12AX7 preamp tubes, about 15 watts Four original 8 in 8 ohm ceramic speakers in sealed back enclosure Single channel with bass, treble, reverb and vibrato controled by foot switch (don't have it) Very heavy construction with large Hammond transformers, axial filter caps that are easily replaced, and hand wired circuit board that is accessible from the top of the amp, schematic included Excellent minus original condition. Big bottom harp tone due to sealed speaker enclosure
Price- $200 + shipping
