1940 Silvertone AC/DC Amp

40' shelf model joins the gang as a 9 volt at Smokin' Rooster Studios. Original chassis needs work, so for now a vintage 6x9 Zenith speaker drivers the box, awesome tone. 1940 Silvertone R81 floor model is my favorite practice amp, 6 watts 10" speaker. Flanked by Flathead, Testa Rossa, and a no good cigar smokin' rooster!!
