Description

This 1951 GA-20 features an early circuit design with octal preamp tubes, known for delivering a warm, rich midrange and beautifully musical breakup when pushed. They make a great alternative to a wide-panel Fender Deluxe, with lower output and a friendlier price point.

Internally, the power cord and electrolytic caps have been replaced, and the original wax signal caps were swapped to ensure reliable performance. The speaker is an era-correct Jensen P12Q from 1955 that has been reconed.

The amp looks fantastic for its age, with minimal signs of wear. The microphone channel in particular sounds incredible and is sure to satisfy any vintage amp enthusiast!
