Old stuff!

Posted by Jimbo Cawthron on September 28, 2009 at 9:30pm
All this rain got me to looking through some of my old stuff, and I found my very first guitar amp. I got it from my uncle when I was 15 years old. It's an old sears model 1430 silvertone amp. pushed a big 3 watts. From what I have read these units where made from 1950 to 1966. The front of the Sears model 1430 Silvertone guitar amp!

The back!

The Tag!

Then I got to thinking,, hmmmm If I could find suthin on the inet showing a fixxup for that amp, well that would be so sweet with a cbg. I found some info and schematics so I just might bring the ole girl back to life!

    Go for it! You can almost certainly find somebody on the net who is as crazy about those old amps as the lunatics here are about CBGs. :)
