1950’s Epiphone Electar “Dreadnaught” in the shop

Man, this amplifiers needs a lot of work. It was dead on arrival….it is so old that some of the wire has almost turned to dust…..bad pots, bad input jacks, and more!

Note the field coil speaker, and this amp uses octal pentode preamp tubes..they don’t make ’em like this anymore!
