1950's Vintage Tube Amplifier Chassis Begging to be turned into a nice vintage tube GUITAR AMP or mic pre-amp! Description: This tube amplifier chasis came from a 1950's US made Ampro Open reel Tape recorder and contains all the components needed to built a nice vintage tube guitar amp or even to just use it in it's current configuration as a Mic pre-amp. All is already there: Mic pre amp to output amp. Alnico speaker and tolex covered casing with lid. Al inputs and outptus are already 1/4" - Mic in, radio phono in, speaker out and remote control. Get nice warm and sweet tube sound! There is the power trasnformer, the output trasnformer, a nice slim chasis, Volume / tone control potentiometers and the original vintage tubes: single ended 6AQ5 output, 2 selenium rectifiers, 1 12AX7 and 1 5879 (9 pin which would make it very easy for circuits that require another 12AX7), plus 1 6C4 triode. Tube skirts are used for the 2 9 Pin tubes. The unit is in basic working condition, but has the usual age related problems: aged capacitors which need to be replaced before the unit will work perfectly or reliably. (the usual hum caused by old filter caps etc. - tested very carefully! - If you mod you would replace the caps anyways Would not you? - I would!) Trasnformers appear in perfect condition. A great project and building block Lot: 1 US made Ampro tube amplifier chassis w/ internally mounted ALnico speaker in tolex covered wooden case with lid - a nice project for a nice piece of sweet sounding quality tube gear; includes all original tubes (and tube skirts), input / ouput kjacks and accessories as described above. Perfect for a guitar amp or Mic pre! Note: All of my items are of the highest possible quality and value to the customer. This item was carefully removed, complete with all items that it originally included, for greatest value! Price: $85.00 Buy Secure and Easy Payment through Paypal. WARNING! As with all vaccum tube equipment: Operates on lethal high voltages and requires advanced electronics skills. |

Buy/Inquire Top Main Page Listen to Music by Rising Star Home 15) 2.5A 117V AC Variac Description: Vintage Audio equipment, especially tube equipment is best tested and re-vived by applying power carefully and very slowly. This unit plugs into 117V AC and allows to regulate the applied power in it's voltage form 0-117V AC. To simply plug equipment into the wall outlet that has not been used for decades very likely destroys it and even may be dangerous - so use a VARIAC! (Variable AC power Transformer). This Variac is rudemetary and in it's condition should be completed and definitely used only be used by experts who know how to handle high voltage, but the unit is easily brought up to standards by adding a grounded power chord, a fuse holder to protect against over current, a back cover to prevent exposure to dangerlous voltages, and maybe even add an AC ammeter to measure the current consumption of the equipment connected to it - that will pay off in many ways! Ths unit was made with a vintage US made Genral Electric variac. Also perfect for lighting brighness regulation without the noise that dimmers generate! Features: AC plug that plugs into any 117V AC household plug. Provides a socket in which the equipment to be tested / revived plugs in. Has a knob that regulates the output voltage with a scale that shows aproximate output voltage: 1-11 - multiply by 10. Lot: WARNING Only experienced electronics technicicas / electricians should purchase this item - or die - you have been warned! To use it as is, is dagerouns and it should be modified as described above before using it. PURCHASE AT YOUR OWN RISK! - One unit available - picture shows 2 perspectives to show all of the details.
