Mint!","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo sales tax for US customers outside California.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Gibson 1950 GA-50T is in mint condition.  This is the cleanest, most original example I could find out there, either for sale or previously sold.  It is literally a qualified museum piece, right down to the original power cable and tubes.  I'm probably a fool for selling this, but that is my lot.  If I keep everything, well - that's not much of a business, is it? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 100% original GA-50T is simply unreal.  Even the handle, the power cable, and the footswitch cable look unbelievable - the cables aren't all dried out and crispy like most originals from the period.  I didn't touch a thing when I realized the state it was in.  It surely needs service to be a useable amp.  I could be financially persuaded to go through it for the next owner, but I would need to see what needs to be done in order to determine that cost. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amp is capable of roughly 18 to 22 tube watts. It has a redwood cabinet, a woven cloth grille, and a leather handle. It has two Jensen speakers, a 12\" (manufacturer code 220, date code 007) and an 8\" (manufacturer code 220, date code 5150), and onboard tremolo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTubes are all original RCA: a 5V4G rectifier, two 6L6 power tubes, three 6SJ7 pentodes for the mic and instrument channels, a 6SN7 twin triode, and a 6SL7 twin triode used for tremolo. The cabinet, grille, baffle, chassis, and both speakers rate mint, and everything is original, including the transformers, potentiometers, filter caps, and the mint pedal. There are no repairs. The power cable is original, with a modification that is shown in the pictures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-spec-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eDate: 1950\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eWhere Is Date Noted?: serial#, codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eWeight: 39 lbs 13 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eDimensions: w 22\" x d 7.5\" x h 17\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eWatts: ~18 to 22 tube watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eCase\/Cover?: none\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eCovering Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eCabinet Material: Redwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eCabinet Condition: mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eCabinet Repairs\/Changes: none\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eCabinet Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eGrille Style: woven fabric\/cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eGrille Condition: mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eGrille Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBaffle Material: plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBaffle Condition: mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBaffle Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBaffle Repairs\/Changes: none\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eChassis Material: metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eChassis Condition: mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eChassis Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eChassis Repairs\/Changes: none\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eKnobs Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eHandle Material: leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eHandle Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Brand: Jensen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Size: 8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Manufacturer Code: 220\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Date Code: 5150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Cone Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Condition: mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 1 Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Brand: Jensen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Size: 12\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Manufacturer Code: 220\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Date Code: 007\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Cone Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Condition: mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eSpeaker 2 Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTransformer Manufacturer: either Thordarson Electric Manufacturing Co.
