Description

One of the unique gems of 50's era amplification, the GA-40 Les Paul was a premium grade amp, built to accompany it's guitar namesake. This one looks to have held up very well for it's age - with mostly minor wear, and a small crunch on the rear middle. The handle has also been replaced.

Internally, the power cord and electrolytic caps have been replaced. The original wax coupling caps have been replaced as well, and the amp sounds great as a result. The original '54 Jensen has been reconed, so the next owner won't need to worry about that either!

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
