Arvin Heater Amp

Antique Arvin Heater Amp repurpose, 2.5 watt Artec amp, 3 1/2" 15 watt dual cone speaker, green on/off led, Strat volume knob, 9 volt battery box. The speaker is built in it's own box and then mounted in the heater, really happy with the way it sounds. Loud and low!

  • Not sure on a price yet John, still having fun playin' on it and can't seem to get myself to price it. That's kinda the way it goes with me, I build stuff and love it. Consiquently I have way too much stuff, time to price some things and move em'. Like I mentioned previously we have a show called JunkStock coming up on June 21-23 and this will go to that and be on the sale block so I will have to do some price soul searching before then I suppose :-)

  • What could you sell this for?  I am looking at an Arvin, they are asking $20.  I HAD to try to get it for $10 but they said ooohhh noooo...  Thanks!  I just got an old Motorola radio for an amp project, they wanted $20...I paid $10!

  • I have a fest/market coming up on June 21-23 called JunkStock and this amp will be going to that as I need as many "unusual" items as possible for that show. They have 14 bands playing so lots of musicians will be about the old dairy farm that it's held on. Not sure of a price yet as I plugged it in again last night and it sounds real good, I am having an emotional affair with it at the moment but I have been known to break up quickly under the right circumstances :-) I'll be in touch though Dave and thanks so much for your very nice comments, if it doesn't sell at Junkstock I'm sure we can put something together.

  • Any thing wrong with selling this one to me? Could we do a deal? .... Dave
  • Thanks Bruce!

  • Thanks Clock!

    Thanks John! I get the same reaction from people at markets when they hear the drive-in amps the first time, that's what usually sells em' :-)  River is real high, it rose 9 feet in about 8 hours the other night, it's going back down now though. Dropped 2 feet yesterday.

     

    Thanks Dave! I will probably sell this amp, no real connection to it other than it sounds really good :-) Takin' it to Junkstock in Omaha, Nebraska in June. 

  • Ohh, that is sweet! What a great find and awesome work you did with it. NICE!

  • Maddog, nice one. Cool or HOT as your speaker amp. Love the look. Are you selling this one? .... Dave
  • Well first off, the river looks UP!   Yowza.   

     

    Ooh, nice amp.   HOT!  Reminds me of my Drive-In Movie speaker amp that you built.    Hey, I took that to a fundraiser jam and people thought it was pretty cute an neat.  Then I played on it and they were kind of shocked at the power it has

  • Heck yeah!!!
